grasping. 1st installment.

"At the start of Forever"

close my eyes but for a moment;
the shadow of your face,
and the only thing i can see
is the scent of your grace;
filling my soul
with the electric fluttering
of a thousand
butterfly kisses, plus one;

jump feet first into the melted
chocolate abyss of your eyes,
sink to the bottom
swirling in the sweet silkiness;
shoot to the surface,
at the insistence of gravity;
pass carelessly through
the knots of the dreamcatcher, laughing;

dance like an Imp on the furrows
of your swollen plum lip,
sugar cane tracings
twirling up tiny candy threads;
tickle my soul
with the caress of your strength,
love of a life;
a dream from which I dare not wake.

Letting Go -- 2nd Installment

"4.4.05" aka "Death's Lustful Grip"

I can't do this anymore.
I can't talk to you again.
It's just too hard
to convince myself
that I don't love you
anymore.
Turn my face into a pillow
hoping somehow
to hide my shame;
to have you again
as we were,
so beautiful in you.
so happy in me,
but this isn't real
merely a dream;
fantasy.
blasphemy.
I can't keep you here.
We're not real.
Yet I survive
embraced in your chains;
take them away.
please leave,
I need to be free
of us.
of Us!
of us, I fear
the day would come
where torture ends & love begins. (c)KF05

"A Secret Admirer" (written 2003)

In twists & curls winding down her curves,
skin, sweet flesh; drink in life,
revitalize me in her night;
held captive by the way the ebb & flows undulate
sneak a glimpse of love's pure bliss
in a kiss, tranquil and light.
