Lay Your Hands on Me (FreeRead)

Lay your hands on me.
Warm, entice, suggest, caress.
The undercurrent of strength in those hands is their secret.
Skin roughened by work sliding across porcelain flesh. Soft abrasion.
Knuckles drawn tentatively along my cheekbone, eyes ask permission.
Warm breath in the shell of my ear fans across flushed cheek.
The stubble of your beard brushes my face.
Yes. My eyes answer yes.
Grasp the crest of my shoulders loosening tensions unknown.

Velvet moonlight filters through the sheer of the curtains.
Diaphanous fabric floats on the warmth of the breeze whispering through the window.

Your body is silvery satin, a symphony of the pleasant tensions of denial, anticipation.
Every muscle defined in the shadows of the night, the illustrated man.
The span of your shoulders welcomes me, arms brought around me, I in the safe harbor of your embrace.
My breasts rub the swirl of hair traversing strong pectorals, my ear resting on the shelf of your collarbone.

Firm fingers slide down the column of muscle that rises at each side of my backbone. The shiver through me is not from cold.

Sigh and filter your fingers through my hair.
Upon my cheek you linger, never breaking the lock of your eyes on mine.
Fine cut lips warm at my throat.
Butterfly kisses cascade across neck and shoulder.
My head weighted back in sensory enchantment.
Hands hot with desire slide down the curves of my sides, past waist over hips, kneading the round of my glutei.
You lift me; carry me to the coolness of the sheets.

Time stops. It is infinite, awash in forever.
You lower your body next to mine.
Radiant heat fills the space between us.
Cradle my face… hands of magic, of love.
Strength held in abeyance all the more remarkable for its restraint.
You worship my body with your touch.
Thumbs across the orbs of my closed lids, fingers massage tender temples.
The whisper of soft Gaelic in my ear, flares of feelings blooming in my chest.
Can a woman forget to breath?
You against me, your body hardened with exercise, skin ablaze with longing.
Your caress loosens tension and concern from my soul. I am yours.
Malleable in your hands, succumbing to the temptation of you.

Starlight in the blue of your eyes, deep and as unfathomable as the sea; your essence emanates through perpetuity.
Have I known you forever?

Suspended in now, I revel in the quintessence of you.
Male, earthy pungency, swain, stag, virile essence of deep forest, rain swept heath, rich deep loam.
Protector, provider, partner and lover, alpha and omega; you make the heart of woman complete.
Take me to you.
Love me with your soul. Keep me forever by your side.
My heart sings in your presence, is strengthened in your absence, longs for you always.
