I thought of you today,
And my senses overwhelmed me-
…Held me…

Bound at the edge,
A teetering ledge-
Of precious memory boxes…

In my mind’s eye,
Softened by gentle smile-
I cry out for you…

Hold me in sanctity,
Pleasure my senses-
Devour my need…

Cradle me with silence,
In a blissful free verse-
Mine, of You…

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

In my mind's eye.  More reality is seen through that one eye than the other two put together. I thought it was a great write.  Very intense.  Roger

Devina,
I didn't put my hat on yet, but if I did I would take it off to this and you. Sy
