Lay Your Soul Next To Me

Lay your soul next to me tonight
Feel the touch of love’s warm starlight
Let the whole of your heart feel this
The wonder of this perfect kiss
Acknowledge the dreams that speak my name
Then accept the need for my liquid flame
Don’t deny me access to your soul
You know its this that makes you whole

Breathe in the fire that I bathe in
Let me cover you with an urge to sin
Take back the wish to set yourself free
Subtract the whole from the sum that’s me
Give your heart to me like this
Wrapped in hope and adorned by bliss
Don’t fear that you can’t pay the price
I’m not looking for a real sacrifice

Gift me with your thoughts of such
The needs and desires for my touch
Let the feel of my whispering flame
Stir again the wish to hear my name
If you want me you know what to do
Simply ask and I’ll come back to you
Allow the night to cover your sight
Cede to this the thrill of lover’s plight

Wherever the moon casts her soft glow
Feel the heat within me begin to flow

Marsha

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

Marsha .... "this perfect kiss"....between two soul mates may have less to do with touch than we think. In any event, I commend your poem for attempting the challenge. Thank you for sharing. Bob

If two bodies must be far apart
Their souls can still entwine
One love flows gently through each heart
And dream touches whisper... "mine."

Forgive the path my thoughts took, sweet lady. *S* Your poem made me think... and you know that can be dangerous! LOL You've written a beauty here, Marsha... I very much enjoyed! *S*

Exquisite thoughts from your inkwell~
Hmmmm ... do they 'know' that this is really you ????

Never am I surprised to see the 'gush-of-mush' for I have met the poetess and she is elegantly remembered through the pouring of her ink~

Love you and miss you, girlie~

sis,

been a while since i've read or posted
to your work (my fault)...im sorry. this
was truly beautiful! i felt every line
of this with my heart & soul. I love you
so much, and your words never cease to
amaze me or effect me.

Love

if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead
hold it close and watch it grow into
