I look on you as a distant emberA flicker of light spiralling in the airUntouchable and unreachableI let my fingers reach out to grasp youYet when I touch, you are no longer there.To touch you, would be to extinguish youYet I want you to know how I feelTo accept your love and hold it up highLighting the way through the darkest of stormsUntil we reach our peace, in togetherness.You are so beautiful in all that you doYou ep...

I do not belong to you in the way you belong to me.I saw this in an amber sunset,the slow burning againsta shimmering summer horizon.We were waiting for the stars,for your hand to slip into mineand softly squeeze as you took in your favorite constellations,speaking of each one as if they were a friend, a loved one or lover you never had the chance of say goodbye to.And I wondered if I burned among them,if my glow was a de...

Your heart pounds against my ear in the suddenly still aftermath,an oceanic rhythm in skin,rising to a quiet warm crest.I could be listening to music from another life,I can't tell if it's mine or yours,it could be the soft waves reachingthe shore of some unknown old country.It tells of all that's unseen now.The marks that will live on this flesh,I only sense their new fire in the darkalong the naked plane of my back.The...

I want to slowly undo you...The soft curtain of lush hairseems to fall in slow motion now,a dark flourish of silk waves lapping against your shoulders.I cannot stop taking you in....As your hair grazes against me,I undo the smallest knot,the bow on your lingeriea subtle and tangible displaysaying to carefully open youExpose the tiny freckles along your chest,I touch them as if each onemay be braille that fingertipscan wor...

Everything seemsOut of my reachLikeWater spiralling down a drainAn empty promise of rainConversations from yesterdayMusic playing too far awayHalf awake, half asleepIt doesn't take muchFor him to seepEasily into my mindThoughts spin and driftAnd effortlessly liftAnd I turn, intending toFill the cavernous riftWith a snowdrift of sugarOnly to feel emptinessHelplessnessEverything's there but nothing comesDistant revs of a mo...

I need to know if there's some depth in you that just can't be reached. I can feel this tender corehelplessly flexing around me,the sacred and profane reilluminated into one. A flash of lighting against the window,just a moment of violent skyward glowsand your body is suddenly still and visible,a bright lithograph of all sensual mystery.And if I said I loved you,would that promise be enough?The singular question has been...

Fingertips graze your neck to toucha forgotten intimate frequency,I can sense the river rushing beneaththe vast unseen world that your skin enshrouds.I've known this surface all too well, the goosebumps that bloomin such a close proximity now,the invisible waves of heat risinglike steamy mist after warm rain.I have to know all that lies beneath,what survives after the storm. And maybe I'm not readyto tell you where I go a...

Once completely stripped down,you are even more fragile,more sensual than my handscould have ever realized.You somehow become everythingonce brought to a singularity.It's that sudden euphoria of being tied to another.A glowing velvet summer skylineright as light folds against the city,the radiance of something I once lost,you become an indelible landscapeof the countless brilliant stars,unknowable nodes touching with thei...

The echo of you inside is temporal,a spectral touch I cannot relinquish,a light that is never forgotten.And how soon you become a loop, how soon you become a beautiful ghost...I'm constantly aching for you,for something that is barely gone.Yet it pangs me like an acute nostalgia,the longing for a time onlywe knew how to feel the shape of,someone I'm ever closer to but also frozen in a moment that I never let go of.My hand...

The night we gave was like a secret, lover,hand to hand, body to body in the dark.A flame kindled once againthrough some mystic connectivetissue pulling us close togetherin a single careful touch.Before that moment quietlystormed through usWe had never been more vague,glowing to one another as if our hearts burned along dark horizons,the automata of a lonely pain.And as your dress loosens now,the soft fabric tingling alon...

Does it become too difficult to withstand?This throbbing pang below begging to be soothedby a careful tonguethat speaks in mysteries,in forgotten incantations.Like a knot that screams to beuntied by knowing fingersthat answered the onequestion whispered...Do we get what we deserve?  And enamored with your taste,the sheen of sweet nectarstill fresh upon my lips,our locked eyes oblivious to all time,our animation suspended....

You draw the most exquisite linesso patiently upon my skin,these invisible traces ensurethat your name is always there.And the more I stay here,this signature becomesall that I want to know.Our need begins to awaken throughout every vein,every capillary screaming,the flame unseen, yet blazingthrough two joined beings.There's an animal between us,a patient wolf circling....And something guttural escapes from deep within ou...
