by Virgin Eyes
I never knew her
yet she was in my most intimate thoughts
desires of the flesh, took over the time
Speeding images, heated connections
Rapid-fire attestations of things not completely understood
Trading innocence in the currency of abstinence
Sublime mental intercourse
Heated exchanges of lust and trust
Circus-like juggling between dreams, streams and whims
Preparation for karmic games
Assaulted dreams
Ambushed days
Imprisoned judgment
Tortured anticipation
revoked surrender
Captive
---
Then
Breaking free
Armed with love
Filled with bountiful life
Stormy days were no more
Than a distant memory of life
I loved her and freed my own heart
