To touch
the mind
With a word. Hello,
exchange a name. A smile
leading, following, sharing.
To touch
the heart.
Open, seeking. Desire
filled, tears fall. Full force
into joy, sorrow, uncertainty. Fearless
in the face of heartache.
To touch
the soul.
Diving in, face first. Accepting
flaws, exposing raw. Connected
souls, roots grow. Following
desire, finding the path. Towards
the other.
To touch
the body.
Eyes meet, hearts beat. Reaching
out, warmth felt. Embrace
the skin. Soaking in. Kiss
warm, moist, familiar.
To touch
the mind, the heart, the soul, the body. Melding
melting, falling, soaring. Pirates
taking booty. Explorers
making discoveries. Flesh
worshipped and sacrificed. Bruised
in battle. Celebrate
victory with wine.
