she felt like a satin draped coffin as i slid into her

the thought made me pause

a mixed metaphor that struck a chord in my mind

in this act of love making i felt myself dying in pieces

as i gave all of myself to her i was inexplicably changed

the man that began this was no longer there

this was a new version of the old me finding peace in the warmth of her desire

i stayed quiet as these thoughts pummeled by brain

falling into the rhythm of her breathing

of her moans

swept away upon the tidal majesty of her laying beneath me

her grip ensured i wouldn’t slip

her eyes made it clear i would never want another

she felt like paradise as i slowly slid into her

i lost who i was as we became

one
