I am touching the music as it pulsates in my cradling ears. There is a precision in each word the way the voice's lips curve around the sounds sucking all feeling from them exhaling them into the air around me making tears long to trace the stone curves of a face carved into a frown. And my hands are sliding all over the air sort of sleazy in their search to grasp the notes and swallow hard in hopes of being intoxicated with some unmatched and unmanned desire to let go standing nude in thought my dancing form wrapped in silken words sends itself in a flurry of moments across an uncrowded room full of windows. I feel like a piece of art a moving display hovering longingly over each new verse being bent and teased by each strain of desperation as love song sweetness touches my soul makes me love you more makes me want you right here/there right now...touching the music with me quietly now breathing wrapped in the silk of our favorite songs tied by the words bound by the need for our skin to dance close fingers entwined, forehead to forehead, blinded by the desperation to feel together and totally loose ourselves in the aftermath of words. Cruel lips mouth the echos of the notes that first stirred us and then settle into a kiss. "two hearts will build the foundation for one point of light |

This is very sensual, VERY, and it's a poem that causes me to think, pause, because it brings so many thoughts to mind that I want to embrace...this is a cool poem, Jenn. I love it. |

When music speaks, the heart hears, and the body listens. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |
