The sun slowly sinks below the horizon as we sit in silence on the isolated beach. Late October, a beautiful time for the shore. True companions of the sea come to the sandy dunes at this time of year to listen to the Divine power whisper truth across the foam that settles at your toes. Day stars glitter and captivate you to open your soul to all that is to be in this universe. Only those who are of the sea come here and listen.
There is no need for us to talk. We hear each other clearly, without the interference of rhetoric that confuses the soul. Hands barely touching, fingers tracing the outline of the wrist moving gracefully to the inner cove that lies between the thumb and the forefinger. Ascending gradually into your palm, tracing your life line to the heart. No words,just foam on toes, the voice of the sea and the ballet of daystars against the sun soaked horizon.
Moments so perfect that for once you just want time to stop so you can breathe a little deeper and remember that moment for the rest of your life. A second so pure , you feel the ancient language soar through your blood one with the sea and another soul as the salt air kisses the skin at the base of your throat. Cradling your voice, the breeze takes it away to be buried amongst the small grains of sand that lie in the dunes. No need to talk, all is known, just be and know all is good.
Time passes slowly and we watch the sun dip below the horizon. I feel your calm spirit rise and join mine. My fingers trace the inside of your forearm, the membrane soft and vulnerable calling to be loved. Strength lies beneath the skin that houses your beauty. Sighing, I feel the night approach, crawling along the horizon towards the border of sand and foam. Water cleanses our hearts and minds. Past is past, no thoughts of the future, just now, this perfect second and all that we feel.
I sense your eyes moving from the sea to me,to the sea. . . to me. I am one with the water, holding the same truth within my body that the sea whispers to you. The mirror of the water swallows the daystars that slowly sink to the bottom of the ocean only to rise as stars against a dark sky. The exact moment that I look into your eyes, my hand reaches up to your lips as I slowly trace the outline of your mouth so full and ripe. I move forward, a second that is timeless, our lips touch, the heat of your mouth spilling into mine. Tongues dancing, mingling, souls breathing in the essence of the other. We can not see where you end and I begin. The salt that floats from the sea moistens our skin as we become one with the night mer, sinking within each other like the daystars at the bottom of the ocean, our passion rising and dancing with the stars.
