And Then There was Us

A poem about two lovers first sexual encounter.

Us

I remember us,
two cosmic ships,
playing
dare with the sun;
you ...darkness,
seeking refuge
from the light,
and I instinctively
there to cover you.
~
We entered Orion's realm
greeted by the smile of
the Crescent moon,
christened by his
divine halo, before
being propelled
into
the arms of
Venus and left
confessing
upon her
altar of
longings greed;
embraced inside
Nirvana's
eternity,
making love
on sacred ground.
~
We littered the heavens
with pearls of our
intimacy,
painted the pallor
of Luna's face
in blush hues
of crimson,
to match the
passion
in her eyes.
~
We soared through every galaxy,
leaving footprints in the sky,
calling out to the moon,
sun and the stars
to bear witness
to our union
tonight.
~
Luna lent me
her silken rays;
accentuating the lust
in my eyes, while
the sun brushed your
skin with famished
tones of ecstasy;
tempting the
lips of desire.
And in the presence
of the heavenly orbs,
we united, ignited,
leaving cascading
trails from our
bastion of passion;
proclaiming
for all time,
You and I
as Us.
