Tainted (@Acenitive)

shades of grey and black
mingled together,
midnight,
silk,
smoke.
moonlight cascaded,
acting like a tranquilliser.
burning fireplace,
created a nebula.
an amorous one.
souls doused in each other,
stuck in the vortex of
evermore love.
lasting touches and
warm breaths
engulfed their bareness.
ignited stares and
incoherent voices
escalated through the darkness.
coyness discarded and
chastity shredded
as the kairos drew close.
their tainted flames
blended with passion,
all nescient to the
impending thunder.
