Speech has borders.

 

You have everything I need
and I want you
to need me enough to give
in to soft dilemma's these
I am soft enough to want as well
but not aggressive enough yet
to sweep you close
all to myself

and you wait
to see
if I can
rise within you
to give me
what you shouldn't
as I peacock
spread my
feathers
trying to hypnotize
tease you
draw you
across passions
imaginary portal
beyond
your red boundaries
your hand in mine
and inspired
I take your mouth
into mine
feel your lips
ply
the soul dust
which resides there
breath clouds
in autumn air

inhaled and exhaled
lungs suck
down deep within
all of you
plunged
dark and delicious there
allowing the consumption
that true love knows
most times
only once
unalloyed by the fear
sometimes sheer depth plunges
may evince
from selves dissolving
into those others
formerly you and I.

Two doors,
once opened
cannot close
hearts exposed
cannot unbeat
and we
traverse
beyond poignant
desire
to Throbbing
Realms
which reside beyond
Metaphors
and Similes.
