I wasn't looking
when you took me
by surprise!
to a place were I could not hide.
The hunger,
I felt deep inside,
a hunger,
that has not been quelled.
As my heart
has swelled,
my loins cry out,
they are on fire!
Raging
from within,
as if some unrelenting sin!
My heart beats a strange rhythm,
dancing in my chest,
to a conflicting beat,
a misplaced harmony,
now a part of me,
this vulnerability.
I just want your touch
is that asking to much?
Your hands hold my destiny
go ahead,
take the best of me!
No longer do I care
not anymore,
throw the rest of me
to the floor,
If that's the cost I pay
well, that's okay,
with out
your touch,
I am nothing anyway!

Travel Snaps Challenge Winners
Travel changes us — if we let its lessons in. It’s possible to wander the world, even to take pictures, with our eyes as good as closed, never opening to the new self that a new place might make of us. So many of the entries to our Travel Snaps challenge were by creators who really wanted to look at the world, and themselves, anew. They were all inspiring to read — and to see, because photography was an important part of this competition. To us, the ‘quality’ of the photographs wasn’t the point; it was that these images were yours. It was a reminder of how much more that can mean — certainly when it comes to personal essays — than widely available or AI images. We really loved seeing these snaps.
