Glass separating an inevitable incontro

Two souls on a collision course

No barriers

No restraints

The merger made by subconscious minds

Where fragile needs lay dormant

Waiting to be awakened

I listened to your words

And your voice caressed me

I looked into your eyes

And they instilled life into me

Your smile so rich

Played with my lips

Inwardly I turned away

Afraid to accept

Safe in denial

Then I heard your voice

I saw your soul

And I smiled

I reached out

Touched your skin

And you spoke to me

Endless silent words

Flowed from your body

An alphabet of emotions

Formed into a timeless conversation

I lie in the dark

Listening to your breathing

I feel your body next to mine

The calm essence of your being

Seeps into my soul

I close my eyes and rest

Safe in the knowledge of you
