Love We Must

Gentle musings for a lover

Love We Must

There is such sadness

in this tragedy

as we pass,

two parts of a whole,

never joined,

complete,

satisfied or not.

Still a mystery

despite the magnetism,

the gentling,

bubbling,

sometimes raging

desire.

Frustration builds

and then tears at flesh

with soft hands,

and tears

only to burn like acid

in your heart.

Then like lovers,

tiff now quelled,

we unite,

pen courtship whispers,

make verbal love,

the most beautiful

real, ethereal kind

found anywhere

in this universe,

our tryst

a bed

full of blissful kisses

upon moist lips,

bare of colour.

Wonderful use of words and thoughts my friend. I agree with your thoughts and your logic.
"we unite,

lovers in theory, maybe not reality...but it can be just as sensuous..
that is for sure...

verbal love can have more meaning than we could imagine.
