A Journey of Love | Love Languages
Bioluminescence
A Poem — Seduced by Your Touch
in that quiet hour,
by the glimmering light
of the full moon, shadows
dance upon my body
as your hands meander over
flesh and bone with the gentleness
of a feather. sensory receptors
ignite like a million fireflies
swaying on a warm summer night,
lights pulsating to a primordial
rhythm, my heart’s wings
unfurling, body glowing with
the bioluminescence
of your love. enraptured,
it is in the here and the now
that i unravel
and become undone.
I must confess that I’ve never been a big fan of Valentine’s Day, though I’ve always had a soft spot for love. So, in celebration of that (and not Valentine’s Day!), I’ve decided to embark on a journey to write poems that speak to each of the five love languages — Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. It would give me great joy if you were to join me on this journey.
Thank you for taking the time to read my poem. Without you, my voice would be a soft whisper just floating in the air.
