instinctive the gaze to touch primal yearnings quickened, the pulse gives way as rapturous waters flow over the body melted resolve holding sway
shhh, tis audible love's heartbeat drones melding of souls ensues fine savor of essences hanging heavy in air all senses love's anguish imbues
complete resistance becomes utter release in silence the merging imparts fulfillment of nature divine love's deep heat proves the joining of hearts

Not knowing when, only that it soon would. Places, heart's hope, emotion is unseen, Unkind to speak and give insight that could Tell all, candor, deceit has been so rude. Confront stone wall that's built cannot be done, Though pain is caused by this I now ought run.

if you asked me
I’d go out with you anytime
become lost in your eyes
relish the lilting song of your voice
feel energy of presences overlapping
touch without a word, eyes locked
hand brushing lightly all over
blessing of touch renewed
bodies sliding together - apart
life’s dance of love
if you asked me
I’d let you into my being moment by moment
did we wake up this way?
laughing over spilled milk
eating crackers in bed
drinking in one another’s essence
condensing emotion
embraces anticipated…
if you asked me
I would let you wash every inch of me
in a thunderous mountain stream
thick with forest smell, leaf, fauna
skin braced in coolness,
every nerve aware of contact
water beaded jewels on your body
warmed again by caress
lying on warm stone in sun
both free and in sync
in the open air
if you asked me
I would let you into my emotional fortress
bound together as blood natives
battling forces of evil together
hands pulling loads together,
bodies bearing burdens of pain
shared resources of strength
comfort in each others very bosom
warmth pressed to warmth
a kiss, the heat of love
in lips, in chest to chest, in arms on backs
body banter, flesh flavor, discovery
fingers tangle, touch, avalanche
if you asked me
I would light up with you in body glow
with stars and moon observing
our lives a mist on a windy night
full mouths connect
empty hands embrace
where clothes once were
