Breathing Lessons

Breathing Lessons

Softly you take my face into your hands
and brush my lips with yours
as though a butterfly sweeps by and brushes the sky
with its breathtaking presence.

My senses implode my heart into a million tiny
sparkles of light.

Our lips touch again, this time with sultry yearning,
melting time and space into erotic jeweled moments  
pausing, only momentarily
to remember
.........to breathe
