In the light of the moon

eyes closed
feigning sleep
but peering out
under my lashes
as you approach
my supine form
under your spell
as you bend
hot breath on me
and I feel
the shivering contact
of your lips
touching
and pausing there
my eyes closing
in languorous ecstasy
as I wait
with beating heart
in the light of the moon
