My eyes are like hands, firm, yet tender skinned, Holding you up from sinking softly, down And absorbing the senses taken in, As feet remain planted on solid ground Countless sights, and pleasures the eyes will bring, Empowered by sight alone to touch thee Held transfixed by a gaze unrelenting, Yet tragic, that the hands can also see The imprint of thy image, volumes speak, Of touches that I can furtively steal Across time, distance, a sensory feast, Through the eyes, my flesh can faithfully feel My eyes caress like hands across your skin Let me feel you like that, and take you in (Dedicated to all the long distance, unrequited lovers out there) [This message has been edited by PoeticKnight (edited 03-28-2001).] |

"My eyes caress like hands across your skin" "Let me feel you like that, and take you in" indeed ... *whew* ... indeed. *S* oh you speak to me in riddles |
