My body. My canvas.


She peels off her silky red dress
Sinking her toes into the damp sand
Brushing her fingers across her straps
Her bra comes undone and falls to the ground
She plays with her laced lingerie
It too slips to the dusty floor
Streams of light compliment her every curve
Her halo reflects off the waters surface
Her skin shimmers in the moonlight
Inching closer to the water's edge
The evening stars make an appearance
Flooding the sky with hope that a child somewhere will receive their wish
She wades into the mysterious lake
Until she is up to her waist
She cracks a smile before fully emerging herself into the dark abyss
Diving like an elegant swan
Gasping for air as she breaks the surface
Gravity at its finest
Slicking back her long auburn hair
Her eyes open, glowing with rebellion
Absolutely stunning
Honorably oblivious.
