Oblivion

As his fingers trace the contours of my body
I gently slip into oblivion.
Strange sensations surge within me
and my heart races.

The world starts to spin
before my already shut eyes.
Colours flash vividly
followed swiftly by fleeting images.

Briefly my eyes flicker open -
I find myself staring deep into the eyes of my love.
I watch as his eyes study my features -
searching for any sign of discomfort.

A quick reassuring glance is all I can manage
before I slip back into oblivion.
The world ceases to exist.
All that's left is my love and me
And all that matters is our love.
