Within velvet tips of finger’s caress, I grant thee my wavering soul. Beyond echoes of breath upon skin, A kiss seals me to the heaven I hold… Jubilance is mine, as you are my wake, To the tenderness of gallant display- When sensation proves sweeter by minute, I shall conquer, mayhap, I shall pray… Betwixt conscience and bewildered heart- I seek guidance from within thine embrace, Shall I coast tender waves without knowing? Bleeding open to you, very well my disgrace… As destined are we both to another- Still our stars cross in mystical light, Glittering yet, one last stoical tear- To forge beneath perilous night… Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

Beautiful work! "Betwixt conscience and bewildered heart, shall I coast tender waves without knowing bleeding open to you, very well my disgrace." These are deep and tender words of yearning for fulfillment in a hopeless situation.... Good writing! |
