So here we are
in the middle of us
with a riddle of trust.

*
We’re hanging on by fingertips
when the grip should be a hug.

*
Held in tension by the chastity,
both passively and shy,
blink you eyes for clarity
and focus on a try.

chastity has eaten us
and held us in the grasp of trust
while nails dig deep within the skin,
the lust for wisdom setting in
i blink i blink
on edges of distinct
and wonder
while the new sun dawns
and thoughts of yesterday
are lost, assunder
past the guilt

there's nothing in a flower
of the human spirit
which can wilt

we are in bloom!
and here we now
possess the stem....
nobody, no,
can ever throw
our souls into a rampant fire
of us opposed to them

we're whole, the ALL of us
the world in tune,
a shined
enlightened
gem

(thank you for your heart and your poetry... your thoughts and writing are a gift and thank you for letting me write spontaneously back to you... )
