Between the loving and the pain, between the lying and the truth, were precious hours we were one, short-lived in time, we knew. And there upon your skin of flame, were crests of dew that I would seek to stroke in ways that understand the wild desire and shame we'd reap. Yet to my heart throb of the time the winds of swaying love did cry and all my gaurded walls were stormed when I looked into your knowing eyes. And when my fortress lust did fall I felt the churning after rain that sanctioned my cold lonely world with tears of sorrow to remain. My nights seem void of feeling now the fire of jaded romance lost and were those swaying winds just wind or love that measures passion's cost? The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up |

Most deeply excellent and multi-leveled, Eric. It resonated with me. Glad to have caught one of your poems again. -MVS "It's all in the details -- the Big Picture always takes care of itself." |
