Lake Superior

Some random guy on CL posted this tonight. I like it. A lot.

For as long as I've known her, she's been a dark seductress. Dangerously beautiful, infinitely enchanting. I'll return to her again and again for as long as I live. Sometimes I can stay away for years but the pull to feel her presence eventually grows to where I can no longer wait another moment to touch her again. No other body can do what hers does to me. It's a touch that reaches my very soul, deep into me, and stirs emotions I don't even have names for. I tingle and shiver, goose bumps rise on my flesh at just the though of her embrace.

She seduced me before I was old enough to know any different, and for that I'll love her forever. Each time I unclothe and stand before her I am filled with a mix of emotions. Courage, yet hesitation. Eager with anticipation I approach though I wrap my arms around myself. She may appear calm but I've seen her fury, I've heard the stories.. she's made stronger men than me weep and beg for mercy.
But she's also very generous. Gentle at times. She gives to all who come asking.

I step closer and feel wave after wave of her power crash against the sense of who I am and of how big and important I just was. She seems so expansive and knowledgeable, like she's witnessed the passing of eons. Her scent sweeps across me, that musky smell of her. So familiar. I'm swept passionately into the moment.

I am so close now that she reaches out and coils around my legs. I plunge into her wetness and gasp! The breath rushes from my lungs as I am left without a thought in my mind. She's sweet on my lips, earthy and crisp. My eyes flush with tears. My very skin is tingling. More! Every heave of her body moves my very being. It's ecstatic and dangerous. At any moment I feel as though I could be pulled into the depths of her and lost forever. I hold out as long as I can, but in a few short moments I explode from her and collapse. I rest and recover only to repeat this with her again and again.

Eventually I'm exhausted. My body is numb. And my soul completely satisfied. I rise to leave, I need something hot to drink or eat. She's there just as I came to her. Inviting, waiting, and forever patient. I'll be back again one day, for certain. But for now I must attend to myself. My lips are blue and the shiver has crept to my bones, for you should know that at any time of the year, the waters of Lake Superior are always ice cold.
