Romance

Too bad she didn't know

Under his gaze
The candle gently flickers
Casting light across her delicate skin.

The flame dances
On her smooth cheek
Caressing the shadows of her slender throat.

Soft light plays
Upon her shimmering lips
Wet with the wine she has tasted.

He dreams of her
Of honey kisses in the night
As her companion calls for the check.
