Distant Smoldering

Your thoughts brought lusty waves to me today;
I smoldered under their hidden touches.
My own thoughts flew to sun's setting rays,
The time before sun dips into the sea,
The edge between the night and evening's flushes,
That late afternoon when you first kissed me.

Though earthly miles are long between our feet,
Expanse of sea can't quench these endless fires.
Our thoughts entwine and have no need of streets
But touch with haste and speed of crimson blush.
I felt your pulse, your eyes and your desire,
On fire, I touched my throat your lips did brush.

That late afternoon when you first kissed me,
On fire, I touched my throat your lips did brush.
