Invulnerable

by libby   Jul 30, 2006


I feel all
smooth touch and pleasure
like i never knew anything else

i just know i want to
give give give
but i don't have enough -
glaring inadequacies turned disappointments turned

total absolution

a shiver of fingertips and all is
forgiven, no, better yet forgotten

touch me touch me gentle and i'll
crash back full-force
all yours
eyes closed
i don't want to see because
the gravity of this is
overwhelming and i wouldn\'t know what to do
(i don't know what to do!)

i'm not here anymore
i'm in some place that
doesn't exist
except for
the single fact that
i occupy it (there's no denying).

i'm not laying here but
i'm not flying
not even floating
just hanging
hanging on to your fingernail

i want to be bug-tiny and
crawl all over you
conquer slopes and curves throughout
your body
you'd be
as big as a world and
all i'd ever need

i want to fall asleep with you giving you
everything complete
giving you the
purest vulnerability that
really isn't
