    Enigmatic reluctance

    His visions of a passion were
    To me
    A long awaited path into his heart
    And he
    As intensely reluctant to feel
    As he was to paint a story,
    One that, ironically
    Included me
    Invited me into his presence
    And showed to me symphonious silence
    And then we danced
    Eternally intertwined in each other
    Adorned in zealous glances
    We danced in each others minds
    And although we were blind
    We saw each other lucidly
    So in tune with one another
    So aware that we were one
    And then
    He gave me the moon
    Wrapped in the stars that we once found
    That night that he had showed me beauty
    Contained in the majestic eternity
    That was the ebony night sky
    And then
    He kissed my longing soul
    Kissed it gently with his paintbrush
    As he stroked the my empty canvas
    Painting lights and musicals
    He embodied both our futures
    Those we wrote when we first spoke
    We were speechless but both willing
    With intrigue and frailty
    For we finally met the daydream
    And then
    He met my heart
    A quick, informal introduction
    The spell was cast and I was free
    And as he intrigued me further
    I was adamant in breathing
    But contagious permanence
    Of the smile he brought
    Held my face so captive
    And then I let myself
    Let myself inhale his fragrance
    Which I bottled and retained
    The moment that I missed him
    He flew back to my heart
    A one way ticket only
    That he had purchased with our time
    And then we took a journey
    Into each other’s words
    Discovering the meaning
    Of what we couldn’t speak
    He splashed me with emotions
    As I splashed with love
    And we continue swimming
    Into delicious currents
    Without which, we would be
    Merely strangers
    Randomly placed onto the surface
    Of an ever shallow planet
    Wandering aimlessly
    But never crossing paths

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
