poetry of Capt Jack

[Capt Jack]

longshot

I pulll you close, closer to me
my hand slides across you slowly to places known to me well
your curves fit me as if made from my own
breathe in breathe out

slowly with nary a sound, I feel your warmth come to my cheek and rest
a measured breeze flows past us as we await the moment we've come here for
breathe in breathe out

my fingers tingle with anticipation as the moment draws near
with the stillness of a stone yet we move together nearly imperceptible to the eye
breathe in breathe out

my eyes search deeply to and through you to find what we both seek to find
so very far as to be nearly invisible but within our grasp
breathe in breathe out

the time has come
breathe in

my hands set in motion what cannot now be halted
a clap of thunder and blinding flash leap forth setting the very earth to shake beneathe us
and as quickly as it begins, its moment is now behind us leaving but a memory

PS: thanks to everyone for letting me post this crap here. I know most of it is second rate at best, but eh.....feels good to at least let it out
