That Twisted Taboo Love Affair



I remember how serene your face looked as you slept
Musty forest green carpet stench 
The scent of fresh kinky sex lingering between your thighs
I traced your moist full lips with my index finger in a slow arc
And watched the slow motion snowflakes in the window 
Fall helplessly to the ground
Counting down to zero 
The alarm clock blared its vile warning
Jarring you awake
Exhaustion holding you still
Staring into your eyes as you lay silent in my arms
I caressed your soft smooth curves and we kissed passionately
Before making love one more time in the warm shower spray
It is Winter in my heart and a cold rain lingers from that night
Dressing hurriedly before returning the motel key
Driving you home searching for something to say like giddy teens
Watching you walk away with a last goodbye
Cruel stings of ice pick reality bleed forever
Burning my skin in a recurring dream of yesterday
Wanting what cannot be had in the flesh 
Only in fleeting illusion
Lusting 
Desiring
Hungering still
Like a man lost in a far away land
Naked and alone
Without a home
I hold you close even when the storm passes me by and I see the Sun
Deep within my heart I starve for such wicked charms
I will always remember you as I saw you
How we danced a demonic black charade 
A debauched pantomime filled with treachery and Sin
Swaying in the darkness to the music of moans and sighs
I confess what I have previously denied before
That sublime twisted taboo love affair
Haunts me in erotic dreams that will not go quietly
Time is an unpaid whore heckling my sanity 
Scratching at my face and I cannot run
Somehow your sensuous depravity
Survived within my tortured mind
Ecstasy frozen in amber
Like gutter snow in March.
