Breathless.

I slide between white folds I see myself through moist reflection. I feel hot breath I hear my heart, my ears ringing. Her face is restfull. Her eyes close, reflection lost. A smile starts. My hand is held, sleep comes swiftly. Not how i thought life would be, But now it starts with my wife to be.

Smell the cliches a mile off. It's nice, but doesn't do it for me. Sexual innuendo gets a bit dull.
