Our bodies rhythmically
swaying with one another
Hearts beating in unison,
connecting through touch
Tapping the drum of our taut skin,
warmed flesh becomes tender
in its sweet submission
and surrender
In this moment,
we are supported
by something larger
protected
by our artistic candor
and existing in Divine harmony
Here, we are as relative as a chord family
Do take care to savor
that which may later
give way to a syncopated matrimony
What once was in time
can become violent cacophony
Utterly unrecognizable from our bodies’
formerly shared melody…
And so I extend to you, not my devotion
but a brief period of collaboration
neither my hand nor unrelenting adoration
simply this larger than life sensation
that is our souls’ ancient groove
Let’s not loop the track
or try to get his moment back
I’ll leave the past where it belongs
and put it into song
for this is what we were gifted
and have been meant to share all along
For what we have exacted,
we’ve done nothing wrong.
