Didn’t need a website to prompt me for this one – just Lex! Dedicated to a wonderful partner, husband, and friend.

MATCHES

Shadows play on the walls
bathing us now in
a simmering glow

Candles everywhere
in this room
ready to light the fuse

or simply illuminate
hours upon languid hours
of our tender embrace

Candlelight romance
That sexy sound
of a match being struck
