& succumb. . .
willing to be kissed by the lips
of your faintest monochromatic stare

& so I become transparent. . . I am bound. . .
will I, might I, inquire in the temple of your wayward
harp-strung glance

lulled into. . .
that most haunting, spiraled splendor
that rents still mind & heart & soul, unaware

not nervous
&/or insufferably numb. . .
collecting items, tenderly, for life's collage

yet, when I manage to just be still
I allow all forms take shape
I sift. . .

& want. . .
to notice pleasure. . . irregardless
of any opaque circumstances. . . irregardless

the intriging way light falls but gently shifts
itself, always from shadow
concaves flesh

as silence
cascades softly, substance rests. . . I sacrifice
all thoughts, not to concentration but to contentment

shall we celebrate life. . . share laughter. . . always sing bliss
give regard to such distractions, in our attempts
to be. . .

almost cozy. . .
lost in attraction & some other distant chakras
finding nothing but the now sparkling within each moment

each & every second as expansive as eternity
the stillness preceding with
unbearable caution. . .

change lingers
oh. . . so. . . tempting. . . & parting. . . hhhmmmmm. . . . .
becomes. . . a strained vanishing in the seat of our souls

so remember only innocence, the essense in child-like eyes
gently now. . . the breathe that we create
becomes apparent

& slips quietly into the night. . .

I am fantastically, and hopelessly speechless, but I always come to find there are words after all.

I shall begin (hesitant, timid at this brilliant surface) with this : it's rare that I find something that can reach beneath and inside the veins, slither to the core, and destroy it in the most beautiful way possible. Not many people can wrench the soul with a whisper, nor create a song from moonlight.

You did this.

This piece was primal in the softest of ways.
You captured the purest essence of something that not everyone can begin to describe, but have hopefully experienced at least once in their life.
And with the relentless eloquence that I always find in your writing.

This is every synonym related to 'Beautiful', and 'Divine'. Do continue to woo us.

Quietly admiring, and remembering,

~S.
