MATRIMONIAL EVEREST

Folder: 
JOURNAL #27

the day

with its hum drum dullness

made generous room

for our hurried pleasures

a savorable collection of stolen

moments

our nest of ravenous exultation

embraced each breath of

giddy oneness

a hasty self made mirage for lovers

yes

desire

an energetic tether

fantastic overture

reblended

that deep feeling so unashamedly

met

then

such incredible sizzling silence

our essences

so easily exchanged

in the motion

you melted into my bones

my dear sir

and I absorbed you

in a feather light return

boring all the grace

my flawed yet thankful body

could muster

believing in that single

animation of spirit

this is where husband and wife

palely fall away

and the eternal lovers that we are

and have likely always been

begin to reassert themselves

and the invisible bond

strengthens even more beautifully

than that of

the moon and the sea............
