You were not mine but I still held onalmost too tightly as if you were,as if denying the body a momentcan really prove its own longing. Together it is almost too much to keepsome sense of infinity blossoming between us.  But the smallest details belong to no one. The way we would cling in our sleepbecause the quiet after is when we become the most tender,and you'd smell sweet like summer rain,you would forget your own lon...

You seem to be looking for the familiar. There's so much I want to tell you. I can't describe how I first enteredthis frenzied torrent of open thighsand hands clasping together as if we knew the ache of the unknown always waiting to be reached. But I want to tell you it's lightning through my veins when we release,ion furies I will never understand,that your nectar is a perfume taking methroughout all things painful and s...

The flameglow kisses her curves with every unstable flicker,skin even warmer before needy lipsmeet the inviting craned dip of her neck. It would hurt too much to believe thisbliss can only be breathed in by the young. We'll still move in tandem towards firelight,both aglow and carefully shadowedin the most ancient warmth dancing,it has and always will be. Her mouth melts against mine the same,the perfect flow of sweetness...

Our skin is that of virginsOur minds are those of whoresOur lips are twin thirsty vesselsOur ears are Eros' whorls Most lives feel complete with five sensesAnd never dare fathom this planeOur souls commune via stratumsBanal science will never explain Like a butterfly's wings will cause ripplesOn a tree leaf a light year awayYour smile touches something inside meWithout knowledge, or sight or delay Your laughter makes my a...

You were watching a still indigo sky,eyes darkening with the hush of night,and I wanted to know what wasbegging to flicker through you,thumb grazing the tear slowly makinga clear river before being kissed away,featherweight forces yet so demanding. Salt never tasted sweeter. Your face soon burrowed into my neckand something raw had awakened,nuzzling where a pulse helplessly rises,the scent of your hair a warm breeze,untet...

The searing heat between usis both somehow ephemeraland reaching into something eternalbut may be a spirit that begins to pull away and elude us with agewhen we always swear we needto just feel something more.  And it scares me to think this,that we can never truly know anyone,it all must come far too naturally,I don't think we'd ever leave our hearts this naked on purpose. It would be pointlesswithout the passion. The wo...

A breeze in the dark field, the earthy sweetness of poppies the same after all these years.  One glint of moonlight made her eyes oceans or vast ancient forests. When inside her, dark starfires, violent rainbows.  No experience, just feral young need. Her hair a fragrant curtain as she rode, squeezed, possessively absorbed my release.  Her accent saying my name, lips trembling murmurs of a country, a dream so far away. I'...

I ask the pretty woman how they put the moonglow in a necklace. She smiles and says that it was a gift from her husband years ago, that they make them with an image of any date's moon you pick. It's the night they met fifty years ago. I tell her that's a lovely gift and her green eyes light up with love.  I want to thank her but can't remember her name. She seems to know this and squeezes my hand, familiar and warm, thumb...

Everything about you becomes archived. Trying to catalog what isn't meant to be charted, codified, and quantified. But math and science, even between people, often made sense to me. Chart the exact moment that the bloom of oxytocin flares immutable around the iris. Note the dark points of pupils contrasting. Every flush of skin, pink randomly rippling beneath the pale. Every breath inhaled and exhaled in a subconscious at...

You followed me long beforeI even knew what want was and everything within you was unknowable,I would've broken your entire heartjust to give you what was left of mine. Some part of me is still waiting. It's only when the wind blows nowand thunder bellows from aboveas a distant pang groaningthat I finally remember howyou tasted like the rain. Like some memory of sweetnesstrembling against my earsas my fingers reach the hi...

She belongs to herself. And when she patiently opensthe entire universe before meit's almost too much to take at once. It's the moment before a supernova,before the raw matter of us is seared by celestial bliss we werenever meant to really understand We can only possess such powerfor moments at a time,otherwise we'd be torched alive. We were only supposed toenveloped deep within themas I am sheathed by her,seeing eyes wid...

You stared at me long after in that timewhere we're only wisps and snapshotsand I was lost in my own longing,in a kiss so imperceptible that it seemed to emanate from somewhere beyond us. The tender heat of your lips remainedand I wanted it to leave a mark. To have something of you in the end. Because I wanted to be claimed,forever branded in urges bloomingon the cusp of such human fires,to have proof that you loved me. I...

Time is still revealing you,a knot to be forever untied. I've seen so much shimmerfrom your bare skin,starlit and ethereal,twining long into the nightwhen you reached for meand all became heat and mist. Even my darkness tinged youbut only where I could see. Some kind of want beyond being made to feel like a man or a woman, something deeper pulls us,blood always calling out to blood. Close enough to the heart,close enough...
