Becoming Un-Calm
....what's got me carrying on like this....Excuse me while I get out of my clothes of un-comfort-ability
becoming un-clothed being
un-scared..... excited...... un-anxious
and delighted....every time I look your way
It's not just you
it's everything about every woman
that I find so enticing.... so inviting......so alarming
and so becoming
...that I find in you...
Every want and every desire
that has crashed against the rocks
of the shores of my heart
lies spent...un-still...un-fulfilled..on your window seal
Awakening....out of a dense fog
all defensive.....apprehensive....pensive
acting like a scheming school girl
hoping these un-easy cheesy words assist me
.....anything...to help explain....this un-calm
why I'm making so much of this
when I quickly back away from the touch of this
Looking around for something...to take the edge off
why and how in the shadows....I stay
away from you...playing safely alone
but not letting you out of my sight
My mind lost control a long time ago
perhaps when my heart first set me free
Or maybe the moment my will
no longer belonged to me
You un-knowingly opened up something un-fed in me
a mutual inquisition... you could say
and like some kind of angelic intervention
with thoughts of you....keeping me at bay
Un-apologetically you played
carefree in my mind.....night and day
Did you know I've been chasing you..
through the streets of my cluttered mind
subliminally dragging you
down ribbons of un-colored thoughts
across un-crowded fields of dreams
and around every distraction I could find
chasing a prey that didn't know
it was caught
......
battles un-won...in my head...and un-fought
A klutz at times I am....prone to crashing head first
heart un-engaged..slayed....but no bones broken
smashing every good intention with you
Bent .....on making the potential...the actual
the libel...the factual
and word of mouth...contractual
....yet wanting nothing more
than to be in your space
....
looking and longing
for something....honest and unique
The thought of searching your eyes for answers
ignites me
The chasing....and pursuing
of a pleasure that I hope will make itself known
Concentration stolen so long ago
Making me forget what I promised myself to remember
You keep me dreaming...
and thinking
and wondering
Me trying to be gentle
and not fight against the butterflies inside,
anxiously awaiting the perfect flight
....a lone sojourn....
through the skies of tomorrow morn'
to come face to face
with words that have always found me
unwrapping me....then wrapping their arms around me
holding me...boldly....endearingly.....intimately
If you're the solution to my blues
I gladly spread my shivering wings
out to you
for a single kiss from un-tarnished lips
to tarnished lips
tasting the origin of all those bittersweet slips
of poetic bliss
emitted from your puckered lips
Life is a process of becoming alive
......to live if but for a moment....
basking in the twinkling of your eyes
and drinking in
....
your smile
I'd gladly un-fold my hand for the chance to say...
we met..... flesh to flesh
brushed each other skin to skin
woman to woman
friend to friend
