Your Touch

You touch and I’m left dangling on a string with heart expanding
and I do believe no angling will relieve me of its load
for now I’m captured, snared and raptured by sensations
manufactured on a countdown to a fracture bursting to explode.

Out blast those tingling impacts riding nerves to every synapse
telling knees and legs they might collapse upon this flattened floor.
I’m drenched in breathless breathing that now blinds my heart perceiving
why my lungs and mouth are grieving since there’s oxygen no more

‘cause your aroma sends me reeling with hypnotic smell careening
into muscle, flesh and bone at rates which can’t be charted
and I would spend forever basking in your breath with everlasting
hope you’d never end my gasping only just now started.

And from this magic moment transfixed, I will find your image did fix
in my mind when Time does insist I have reached my end.
I’ll walk Eternity without the stumbling on legs and feet made whole
from crumbling ‘cause thoughts of you will brace my tumbling
down its breakless bend.

Sounds like someone is smitten, & wallowing
happily in the bliss.

Sky - There's nothing like being smitten and wallowing in the bliss. It's right next door to Heaven. I think I'll stay a while and now I'm kinda glad my best luggage came with me. LOL. Thanks Sky for stopping in with your 'touch'. Namyh

I really like the rhythm you've incorporated into this one Namyh.  All your poems I find "singable" which to me is a great thing.
