s  t  r  e  t  c  h

your arms wide
take me in your arms

i am hungered
  by affection
  by touch
  by love
     show my eyes
     feed my skin
     fill my heart

clot me in my
b l e e d

then if you want
you can turn me
a w   a     y

as far as you want

push me farthest
a w   a     y

starved
i am

like a fasting saint

no, i am no saint

but
sanity
is leaving me
b     e    h   i  n d

pull me in your drift
please

and then if you want
you can release yourself
free like birds
flowing like rivers
and swim the depths in air

Suddy, my friend, it would be tongue in cheek for me to say you're stretching again in your poetry, but I will, and thank you very much for it.

You gain everything by reaching out....and nothing if you don't! Enjoyed this, Sudhir.
