Her lace was as delicate as moth wings,
while I slowly glided them past her feet,
toes at point in expectation.
Her heart is always true,
always clear,
always too fragile.
I move her to me,
with hands that have seen better days.
She waits.
Her breath heaving her chest;
anticipation always plays games with
arrhythmia, tachycardia.
The butterflies numbered and sequenced,
brought into the realm of science.
She sighed "I love you"s to me,
as I worked subtle magic
with tongue and hand.
She was illuminated,
a living stone creation,
in the pale blue of the early morning,
where sleep was king,
and we, a reformist movement of two.
I worked alchemies on her flesh
as the sun climbed the sky.
She was velvet divided.
And I,
an enraptured reverent soul
captured by the dawn.

You have certainly been undone by beauty. You are a prize for your lady as she is for you, and I am happy for the both of you.
