Drink From My Hands

Take these words in your hands
As if dipping a cup into the coolest lake,
And drink slowly my pain and joy;
With every tear drop that descends questioningly
From the corner of your thirst-quenched mouth,
Watch the rippling affect of amplitude driven emotions,
That expand and expand into infinities silence---
A place of puddles and muddling thoughts,
Inside the heart of this poet and sometimes troubled man.

I do not know how troubled a man you may be at times, but I do know, that you are one fine poet!

This has just got to go up to the top again!
Some poems are so touching they leave me without words. Yours is definitely one! A lot of feeling in this!

We each need someone thirsty.

There is a sacredness and adoration that is expressed in loving someone from their soul to their weaknesses. You have painted this so very well here and it surely deserves another read.

The free style form you chose to express this is perfect.

Very well written indeed.

But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul
