seething towards exhaustion

it is filling the lung & flowing

out upon each gasp, a whisper

ill-formed & rasping in my hear

it matters not the word

or sound

only the moist nearness

of this love-shaped thing

& I, half-learned

but noticing the essense of my interest. . .

fall towards everything you are

every grace. . .

this exacting voltage, tenders 'til

I have no fear

for surely, we are the center

delicate & fine. . .

we are understanding

we are beyond time. . . & timeless

I am yours. . .

Beautiful imagery here in what flows out as an intense write.
Enjoyed reading it and felt privileged to do the same.
