The Journey
 
Red rose petals scattered from door to bed...
where, giddy with champagne, she's being led...
The touch of his hands brings a thrill of delight
as she lives her dream this Valentine's night.
Soft music for lovers plays in the background..
her rapidly beating heart drowns out the sound..
The look in her eyes turns from wonder to sultry
as he traces the lines of her body so gently.
In the candlelight's glow, her silken hair shines..
their passion increases as he takes his time...
The feel of her skin against satin sheets
makes her ache with desire as their lips finally meet
in a long, sensual kiss
that brings wave after wave of tormenting bliss...
With whispered words of endearment, slowly they go
on their long awaited journey to love's plateau.
