Phoenix Rising

We move gently,
Initiating the sacred dance.
My heart beats
In ancient rhythm
as your hands
Slowly trail down my body.

I rise above you,
My eyes locked with yours,
My fingers clutched in your hair.
My hips rock against yours,
Then I sink
Down, sheathing you in liquid fire.

You tremble beneath me.
Our passion rises
A newborn phoenix lifting
Its wings from the ashes,
Quenching its thirst, bathing
In our sweet ambrosia.

Phoenix Rising

We move gently,
Initiating the sacred dance.
My heart beats
In ancient rhythm
as your hands
Slowly trail down my body.

I rise above you,
My eyes locked with yours,
My fingers clutched in your hair.
My hips rock against yours,
Then I sink
Down, sheathing you in liquid fire.

You tremble beneath me.
Our passion rises
A newborn phoenix lifting
Its wings from the ashes,
Quenching its thirst, bathing
In our sweet ambrosia.
