LOVERS

dance with me to the beat of love

where a memory hangs over a cloud

and whispers secrets to the night

calling to the moon to look at us

naked bodies on the sand

romancing a lurid waltz

turning all silence into passionate cry

tongues sealing our salt

twirls of flesh tied in one

ancient desires blushing anew

on the warm carpet of tiny crystal roses

bathed by tropical waves

lucid dreams romancing the mind

where only you can conceive

the power of your gravity

taking over all my fire

until finally subdued

into pulsing

karma!

Luz María Lopez

ONE NIGHT

balm my lips

with the essence of your words

tie me to the wind

where your eyes rest in quiet

search of the unknown

rock me while i sleep

and draw over my skin

a symphony of palpitations

lash me out of own self

only to converge in the wild paths

that carries you away from my roots

sing that song of love

that flies free in the dawn hours

let me dream that one day

you will stay until the waves

return to pronounce

that time is just a mirage

where each heartbeat repeats

deep in the chest

that holds you

as infidel prayer.

Luz María López

VENUS

Half-shell conjurer

tracing with her steps

the name of his eyes

recalling their universe

aquarelle on silent smile

holographic soul

probing beyond galaxies

to converge on his lips

as passionate prose!

half-shell spirit

half-shell cult

full moon bliss

when the pearl

is kissed by

his lust.
