She Sees Me


I love
the way she shoves
me down on the bed.
Our heads
/


spinning,
with sweetness
between the sheets beginning.

/

For the first time
someone unbinds
my mind
and the release is sublime
as the line

/

between not close enough and too far blur.
Something inside me stirs,
awakened by her.

/

She
makes me
feel free.
At ease.
Effortlessly.
As she teases

/

my body with hers,
clothes lurk
upon the barrier which irks

/

the process of lovemaking.
Forsaking
all foreplay, debating
on how to properly move forward. Painstakingly 

/

transferring  clothes from body parts to the floor, it commences
as skin finally meets skin.
The sweet sin
of the flesh. One thrust and it's in,
and it begins;

/

unwilling
to let each other escape until the act of fulfilling 
/
 
has been completed for both sides.
With us both exposed, nothing hides.

/

All the scars,
all the secrets and marks,
all the shame and the walls and the dark
?

alleyways of memory we both long to forget.
No regrets.
No experiments.
No rules to set.
No requirements met.

/

Nothing exists but this moment
and the atonement

/

that follows.
As we each fill each other's hollow

/

hearts,
and the parts

/

of ourselves that have been shattered,
scattered,

/

abused and warped,
twisted and morphed.

/

Yet the solidifying,
the detoxifying,

/

has never been so painless
or shameless.

/
 
Her eyes
meet mine
as the lines

/
 
of reality start to reappear.
She's still here
and her face shows no fear,
and I can hear 

/
 
her breath harden, and her heart beat.
She's my ecstasy.
She makes me complete.

I don't like to give myself away. I'd rather let my writing do that for me.
