Dismiss me then
In symbols of dissension, stripped emotion from the bones
Just lust, a common interest done in fun, rehearsed in ample minus one
Involved to linger unresolved, simply put to bed instead

Guided through the course of life incensed and sensing
Questions of commitment hang in fog before an April cleansing
Feelings swallowed whole attempted squander heart and soul

He moves…discomforted her honest grooves, the circles scour and scout
Which way is out, which door the doubt, away the torrents all about
Nourished in his own thoughts, supposed, disposed a lull haunts him
Dismiss me then

It is your feeling reeling that pulses through my veins, my ego wanes
For more and unlike all before, you are the love that beats within me
The come and go of end begins me…waited in the rhythm of every sound

Moving earth and heaven to the shores where love is found
Living on the breath that you are finished with, giving of the air diminished
Softly did she speak into his mouth…again
Dismiss me then

Your refined words of passion once again render me speachless and wanting more. If this is only lust you speak of I can't help but wonder what love would be like penned by you.

Being a passionate and I believe a good man, I still find it hard to love unconditionally and solely; it is hard to explain and I have had many discussions with other men and it just is what it is; but have faith, I think we are finally starting to get it. Enjoyed this beautiful piece!

This poem reads as if in a struggle to remove the stain of emotions... poignant write, beautiful flow...
