She moves through my perception
like angels under water,
their movements like slow motion symphonies,
poetic and mesmerizing.
Her curves are the Iliad
and in her eyes lies the downfall of this man.
Everytime our eyes meet,
I fall from grace;
my wings fall bloodied in sacrifice.
I whisper secret prayers into your flesh,
raise hymns to the heavens on your hips.
A smile flashed
and I am destroyed more thoroughly than any Armegeddon.
She is Kali
and I her willing pilgrim,
with every death a new birth.
She reaches a hand to heaven,
while beckoning to Eve's Apple with the other,
and I will succumb,
without fail.
Even the knights of old knew
the pilgrimage to the holy land
must be made on your knees.

You're such a good writer. Your words, they never fail, never disappoint.
To know you is a gift.

I am the gifted one here. For knowing you is a gift akin to that of life itself.
