                      I would like to show you
                      what it is I'm feeling
                      It emits from the skin
                      I would like for you to lay your fingertips
                      across my lips as I speak between the lines
                      Silk and soft warmth
                      words flowing along your fingers
                      embeding into each grove
                      The smell of your skin humming
                      a second aura, weaving around me
                      Sinking into scared and smooth flesh
                      Tears, the warm salt of the seas deep with in me
                      trickle a delicate creep flowing from lashes crest
                      burning your wounds as they slide down your skin
                      mixing into a thicker concoction
                      quivering at skins end falling down to me again
                      crimson
                      You peer into my eyes
                      curious, half smiling, half horrified
                      What is it that tightens with pulse and breath
                      Have me for a moment
                      Hold me in those eyes as you say goodbye to me
                      Let me express what it is that you awakened
                      The things you taught me,
                      with a smile, a quite moment,
                      Anger shuddering flung on to my skin
                      and smoothed away with a passionate hand
                      A hush a calm
                      A whisper I remeber
                      "What are you thinking?"
                      You once asked it of me
                      as I lay on the floor staring far away
                      in that place that was once home to me
                      I will miss you when you leave
                      Always knowing,
                      That goodbye would come
                      not knowing how to prepare for it
                      Theres a small place in me
                      where you aren't anymore
                      Held agape and unhealing
                      The bleeding heart
                      I love that place
                      Shuddering with emotions
                      encased in this prison of flesh
                      unexpressed
                      I look away
                      Not wanting you to see the light go out
                      Goodbye

Iam having the same problem reading this as I did one of your others...

When I looked at it, by hitting the printer button/item you didn't type it this way. What happened is you didn't hit the return at the end of each sentence. I think, maybe.....

I'd like a better chance to see this, for it gives me a headache and please see my note on the other one I just called up....

Thank you so much and you should have seen the first couple I posted....ugh!

Hugs to you, Pat
