Poetry from the Heart of Darkness

ALL POETRY © SEAN MULLIGAN. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 

Floating
at the gate of miracles
her satin fingers
whisper through my hair
tracing lazy patterns
on cool damp skin
her cinnamon lips
pressed close to mine
one breath
one spirit
unspoken promise
to fulfill

spinning
her scent envelops me
in dizzy waves
of milk and honey
sinuous flickering
flame-spawned shadows
dance upon her face
my arms encircle her
and clasp her like
a precious treasure
her glistening eyes
beckon
as the rising heat
ignites
the night

rolling
beyond the veil
of love unfolding
the silent thunder
builds
a rushing torrent
cascading toward
the sacred vault
tremors spread
throughout our being
essence intermingling
in serene accord

soaring
well beyond the confines
of time and earthly realms
lost in the quicksilver
moment that will last
forever
a memory
a dream of union
with the Radiant
light of the first day
heartbeats quicken
as two
melt into
one.
