As you touch without hands, caress with your eyes and make love with your voice

Amidst a languid lake

Like a ripple unleashed

With tumultuous speed

It spreads over and over again

A passion of burning candescence

In ways that consumes me

Insatiable, untamed, uninhibited

Cloudbursts of exhilarating fire

With eyes from your viewpoint

Wrapped around your skin, I travel

As you touch without hands, caress

With your eyes and make love with

Your voice

To form a bond beyond horizons

Together not complementing

Not just to complete you

But to become one with you

You don't search for it

You don't prepare for it

Hours of digital media

Pages written over centuries

Odes and sonnets sung with the wind’s music

Doesn't warm you at all

For this eternal rhythm

Which I stumbled across

One fine day, without a clue

Out a warning

I guess... You do fall in love

An elixir for basic survival.
