afterglow

lying spent, the peak past, all slow,
fading fire burning lower,
sounds fade, now just an echo,
we sprawl, all movement slower

passion's embers banked, still glow,
lazy touching, tracing, feeling,
drowsy voices murmer soft & low
words of love, words of healing

in sweet collapse, bare skin to skin,
limbs entwined, won't yet let go,
no more content we've ever been
than now in loving's afterglow
