starless_night Sonya Tonight the clouds rolled in and the stars could not be seen. We shared our love in a way others couldn't possibly fathom. Tender whispers morphed into flaming moans. Our hearts merged into one. Our words gently tickled each other's flesh. You drifted off to sleep afterwards and all I could hear was your breathing as I laid there in the darkness. There was nothing more I could do except tell you all that I had been holding back. I whispered everything I kept within me to you as you journeyed in your slumber. It was as if my feelings had evolved into your solemn lullaby. There's no going back love. We will grow ever closer until we merge beyond our own reality.
