Dream Cities

The night is forever. Her gaze pornographic. Oh, the things I would do given half a chance. And the chance is there, only my desires go beyond the beauty she displays. To see her naked on my bed wouldn’t be enough. There’s a journey just waiting to be taken, but there’s no destination in mind. Into the darkness, I want to show her places she’s never been before. Those eyes like a cat- I want to see them dilate- want them to widen like her nostrils as she understands my intentions as we fall through the floor and float on a sea of cotton candy. My body betrays me, but these dreams, they grow more vivid with every breath of air that fills my lungs. In the few seconds where it’s us and no one else, the future’s already happened. Intimacy in the merest of touches; the knowing smile of lovers who have not yet loved, but know the pleasures that await them. Daylight is far away, so for now, it’s just me and the stars that shimmer in her belly. A song from the earliest days of the universe escaping from her throat; a silence that follows as we swim hand in hand, deep in the heart of it all.

  1. I don’t think I took a breath while reading this; captivating does not do it justice. Sometimes when I have read your work I think, this is my favorite, til I read something else, so why pick favorites I say; I’ll just enjoy them all. And as an aside, your post yesterday inspired me to write something about my mutual love of the night, so I called mine Creatures of the Night, so as not to steal your title. I hope you are having an amazing day.

    1. I shall be sure to check your piece out 🙂 As ever, I’m honored you enjoy my writing, and each time I sit down to pen a new piece, I look forward to creating something that will hopefully be stronger than the one that went before it. My day is going well, thank you, although I’m jealous of America and all the snow it’s been getting. We only had a light dusting in England. Doesn’t seem fair at all!

      1. You have many amazing pieces to your name; so accomplished you are. As for the snow, I would trade you places! 🙂

      2. Thank you my friend 🙂 I would pay handsomely for that trade! I miss a good snowfall.

      3. Deal, watch for flying snowballs!

    1. I always remind myself of the days when I suffered from writers block. That spurs me on whenever I’m feeling lazy 🙂
