Day Dream

It’s the season of love and Aprons ‘n Heels will be celebrating the blessing of intimacy within marriage for the next couple of posts. By design, marriage was created to be the most intimate relationship on earth. In this post Candice Williams sought to capture an episode of a wife daydreaming about an epic encounter with her husband. I hope as you read that you will be able to recreate a similar experience with your spouse in this the season of love.

I am vividly aware of the imprint of your hands caressing my body even though its midday and you’re not here. Thinking of your voice, that sweet whisper only I am allowed to hear when the sky is brushed with rich hues of indigo, orange and yellow. The sun is setting but here I am nestled like a sweet child in your arms.

Your diamond eyes search me through and through. There is no denying how deliriously I am in love with you. Every cell, every fiber of my being responds to your call. You have the keys to my heart. My breath is perfumed by one touch from your lips, and I am never satisfied, I am never full. Give me more to drink, my lover and friend. I am your instrument; play me like Beethoven’s 5th symphony and I will respond.

The intensity, the ferocity of your touch alarms me yet I am not afraid because you hunger for me and only me. Take from me to fill your desire, go deeper and deeper still. “Sun, stand still so I may know the depth, the width of his love”. But hush, I hear the beating of a drum in the distance; its rhythm is an enchanting one. Our hearts beat in sync and as we move to the beat of this drum, we who are two become one.

Romance novels have never told the tale well of two hearts united and blessed from above. Earth cannot contain us, and we beat against heaven’s door, catching a glimpse, if only for a moment. My love is quieted, and I am in his arms content as a suckling child. It’s midday and in an instant I’ve relived that moment so vividly, I cannot wait to come home.
