Eternal Love
Poetry by Niki
**A poem from Spike's POV somewhere in time on a
beach with Dru...**
Droplets of water across timeless sands
whose grains topple into her silken palms
Hands spread across my muscular back
Oil as hot as the Sahara sun slick across skin
The delectable scent of cinnamon assaults me
In the distance I hear the ocean lap
She starts to sing in her strange sweet voice
"Shadows slip across the crevices of my mind
places where I keep thoughts of you
Evading poison that ravishes here
Je ne sais pas comment Je vie ne avec pas tu"
Her murmured words send slight chills into me
tingling the scent of her flows through me
Wild berries, burnt roses and blood; so sweet.
My tense shoulders turn soft within her grasp
The night sky and the bright full moon shine
"Je ne sais pas comment Je vie ne avec pas tu"
She murmured again, her words silky in the night air
She's as addictive as opium and nearly as high
The wind is soft and sweet smelling
and it blows at the dancing flames of a candle
Her lips now, to my skin, caressing my neck
Cool and moist they slip down to my collarbone
She lifts her head to my ear and whispers
"I love you" Such sweet words, yes
Wilted white roses in a vase near our bed
I can picture them all in my head
The satin sheet, the half-burnt candles,
and a sheer black drape over the canopy
And her; her gray-blue eyes and her pale as milk skin.
Her succulent lips and her raven hair.
All so tempting, all so seductive.
Her soft touch brings me back to reality
On the night beach I'm lying in her arms
She leans in and brushes my bare chest with her hair
and she kisses my lips and whispers against them
"I love you. Je ne sais pas comment Je vie ne avec pas tu"
and holds me close.
A love as eternal as ours can never die.
"J'adore tu"
