Tantalyzing Tuesday, August 27, 2013 ~ The Kiss

I have been away, I know, for longer than I would like or care to admit.  I really have not been myself.  I don't know who I have been, but I think they are gone now and have released me back into my own captivity. Hopefully, I will survive and thrive again...

Today is Tantalyzing Tuesday which means to you that the participating purient authors select a photograph that inspires them in some way to write a 200 word, no more and no less, short story. It is a friendly competition meant to help hone our writing skills.  Please have a quick read of mine below, then meander, savoring the delight, over to all the others and read/comment on theirs.  They can be found listed on our author page, Tantalizing Tuesday, or listed below.  So without further adieu, permit me to offer you my piece today I have called The Kiss...............
The Kiss
As the quiet whisper carried his words to me, "I wish I could show you how I feel,” my hair fell away from my face baring naked the object of his yearning.  I felt my fevered cheek blush at having heard his soulful desire.
 
The flutter of thousands of wings exploded in my heart and my breath seized.  My palms grew nervous in anticipation.  Even with my eyes now cast to the floor, my body belied my own paralyzed passions. 
 
My breast tightened around a stifled scream, allowing but a whimpered "............please" escape to fill the room with my heat.  I reached out with an eagerness I had never known yet knew instinctively.  My arms opened without my willing, reached for him and I wrapped him in my impatience.  He pressed against me.  His body, his scent, the slight glistening of his perspiration on my cheek, weakened my resolve and my knees buckled under the heady weight of my desire.  I sighed into his neck as he caught my falling body.  In the trail of his scorching touch, my skin came alive with hunger.
 
Life without him would be torture, and yet
To have his kiss would be the death of me........

  7. Good to have you back, Muffy. I was gone myself for a while. This is strong stuff - visceral in its sensory detail and with real emotional power. Your writing has retained its edge.

I was born when we kissed; I died when we parted. I lived in your embrace while we loved..........
