Tongues To Rain Something new beats beneath my blouse And I fear it, as insatiable as thirst in draught A bareback pulsing drive that rises up without permission Drawing me out to the edge of vast water, purposely clear This bubble and churn of delightful and foreboding Over time, I have grown accustomed to your mind’s stew Expressions so uniquely you, indelible upon my ear I wait, anticipating sound as water That as far from me as you have seemed Here with me you remain, and I have not expression left to say A fierce desire might conspire fusion of the blood But unlike lust, it is a beating soul that speaks the stroke of moonlight My eyes taste upon the vibrant lines that softly sculpt you Though as we touch upon it, is it not the boundary that controls us? To know the silent ache of months without rain, keeps still my tears Is it the power to drown that you intend? And if I share this secret, related from my heart to yours Will you brave the seas of me, and lift me from the waves? I hear your footsteps, pausing just ahead, capturing my light Redressing fragile wings, blown south and away just slightly There is more to this than simple obsession, an interplay of minds As I follow you, my eyes caress the motion that you make And I would raise a sword to any threat, redeem lost wishes, and foil the sun A loyalty unlike any other soaks the mouthing of passion’s play That which you have kept at bay, shall be respected ‘til my dying day But oh, you do pervade a kiss left gleaming in it’s deepest need of all Copyright Kkh 12/03/05 |

As I follow you, my eyes caress the motion that you make And I would raise a sword to any threat, redeem lost wishes, and foil the sun A loyalty unlike any other soaks the mouthing of passion’s play That which you have kept at bay, shall be respected ‘til my dying day But oh, you do pervade a kiss left gleaming in it’s deepest need of all WOW Excellent TD. hugs, Chris |

"A loyalty unlike any other soaks the mouthing of passion’s play" ~ and may such loyalty and empassioned words, be duly rewarded.  Linda |
