Castle Of Fate

From afar I can smell your scent
Tickling my nostrils with curiosity
As your beauty trails through the meadows
Of adventure and excitement
Leaving footprints as maps
Leading to the castle that encompasses your beauty
So on a ship I sail on a quest to embrace this alluring scent
Dreaming of encompassing it with my senses
Enveloping it with this galaxy that is my heart
Orbiting with every heartbeat
Circulating like the brightness of the stars
Around and back to the chambers you inhabit
I arrive at this castle still dazed by
A deep train of wonder
Guiding me closer to
The source of this heavenly scent
Leading me to my heart's desire
Causing it to beat rapidly
Like the sensor of a metal detector
Alerting me that I am getting closer
To this mysterious destination
Brows dripping with happiness
Fingers trembling with anxiety
I reach the door of this enchantment
That resonates behind the walls
Of my loyal spirits
I open it and my eyes so suddenly
Have discovered the source of magic
It appears in the form of
A deliciously, beautiful human creature
Hair as black as a Raven's feathers
Eyes as blue as the Atlantic Ocean
Skin as white as vanilla cheesecake
As I begin to move closer to her
My taste buds start to dance in a wild uproar
Begging me to quench my desire
She smells just like strawberries and roses
Dipped in white chocolate
To quench my thirsty taste buds
She decides to lean in
The gentle, soft touch of her lips
Gliding across the surface of mine
The exquisite and irresistible passion
Swimming in between the cracks of my lips
Exploding like firecrackers
Setting me off
Then she breaks the kiss
Pushing me into a Jacuzzi
Filled with soap and bubbles
Jumping in herself
We start play fighting
Splashing each other
The sound of laughter echoing
As back and forth we are tossing
Handfuls of soap suds at each other
Then we come full circle
Back just within inches of each other
She raises both her hands
And I raise mine in response
And we put our hands together
Fingers locking directly into place
As we gaze intensely into each other's eyes
Tears of happiness welling in hers
Tears of love welling mine
As both the desires
of our hearts intertwine
Realizing that right here
In this moment
In each other's arms
Together we will be fine
