I lie in bed, naked.

I run my hands over my damp breasts
& over the flare of my hips.
A smile hovers across my lips –
somewhere between shy coquette & vamp
between exultation & satisfaction.

You have left these hallowed thighs
& the moisture within
& my insides have turned to mush.

I bite my lip and think of the last hour;
magnificent you & amazing me –
an amalgam of heat, desire, passion.

I have looked in your eyes &
I have seen your soul,
with your thrusts, you opened mine.

For a while our galaxies collided
& we were one with the universe,
with each other.

I lie in bed, naked.
