I could feel the finger trace as I read every word. A whisper of warm breathe, just enough to stir the hair and send a shiver of anticipation down my spine. I hear your voice in my dreams. I scream your words in the deepest parts of myself. I close my eyes and imagine the way your lips form each word, as if the words themselves were made for your lips. I wish for you to finger paint those words of your heart on my skin. Grafting their meaning to me forever. I feel you touching the wounded places. Expelling all but the purity of your love Loyalty and trust, and I want to live inside you. I want to read the mystery of you In each beat of your heart Letting it tell me your story I dream each sentence is a secret message urging me to swallow the intent allowing it to flow freely within you, who has written me in love you, who’s smell I long for in the dark of night dispel this soon vestige of hopelessness so I may drink your words, your wisdom living in you, through you, beside you for the eternity you write of with your eyes "too bad ignorance isn't painful" ~Unknown~ |

Seriously tho, whomever your muse might be has fawned a gentle lovely side of you in this cool breeze of verse. (but I tell ya, it really is all about me!) *hugs you* |

darlin, this was incredible, and helped me to remember faintly, what I knew so long ago it draws out compassion, heaping the reader with one hell of a jolt...in this your humble innocence of love...and a nice place to be...inside of him.... Hugs to ya... and thank you for writing and sharing. |

Good grief it slid and I missed it! This is the part that I simply ADORED... I wish for you to finger paint those words of your heart on my skin. Grafting their meaning to me forever Now...if you could find me a man willing to do just that, maybe then, and only then would I ever consider sharing my sink again. |
