Free to Love

A broken dogma and an impure rhetoric

Hang from the ceiling my love

As we lie here; you and I

I savor my skin

the taste of you

In my mouth

and all around me

an essence

a feeling

and a physical glow

as your breath expands and contracts

A shelter around me

trauma sheds its illusory holdings

because aint nothing safer than love

they've all gone home now

and although I feel afraid

will i be bored

what will i do now

i remember me

and curl deeper into the mend and meld of skin on skin

A truth

A spiritual

A physical plane where senses meld

Souls join

In ecstasy, and blend

Mutual

And

Entertwined

Love is love

Where it is, it is.
