Our Secret Place

A Poem by Indigoshadows

Your eyes burn through me
From across the room
Tracing up my bare legs
Until they meet my eyes
And for a moment they
Lock me...
Invite me...
Into our secret place.
The place where desire
Taunts the threshold
Of action.
Where in the quiet
Of the wandering thoughts--
Howls animal passion...
Beneath the surface of civility.
The handshake
Begging for more time
To explore eachother.
And when I come to,
I'm biting my lower lip
And drawing in a quick breath
Followed by a restless moan.
Drawn into wants
Impossible to transpose
Even if we wanted to...
Yet so hard---
To place
In the waking world.
