i am intrigued by the infinity of sound
it’s where our inner selves are found
where our true spirits abound
it’s the things you say that i refuse to hear
the things i say that you ignore
it the things about us others hear
that make us fear
i am tickled by the silkiness of skin
it’s when we can really say what’s within
where we can indulge in every sin
it’s the way you touch me that i enjoy
the way i touch you that you love
it the way others see us brush
that makes us blush
i am intoxicated by the subtleness of smell
it’s how I know you oh so well
but you know i don’t kiss & tell
it’s the way you inhale & i exhale
it’s the way i inhale & you exhale
the way others sense us rhyme
that makes us live sublime
i am fascinated by the fullness of flavor
it’s something i love to savor
it’s what many desire never to waiver
it’s the way you crave & i satisfy you
the way that i crave, & you satisfy me
it’s the way we don’t crave at all
that makes us want to brawl
i am amazed by the clarity of light
it’s here our dreams are never far from sight
where within ourselves we often fight
it’s the things you see in me that i don’t
the things i see in you that you don’t
the things we see in each other that others don’t see
that makes us just want to be
fantastic poem why do you say you bombed on this one?

alkemi - thanks for the comment. i love the poem but i think i bombed on the performance. or maybe cause i’ve never performed something so personal at the time it’s raw.
