The most natural of acts

by Ares   Aug 31, 2008


Soft is the spark lit within,
centered in the core of my being,
the world has became a blur,
of natural colors in splendid motion.
I soar through the sky, out in to space,
lost beyond all communication.

every movement sends a sensation,
like tickling warm water down my back,
as I take one step closer to you,
it's like I'm crossing the depths of the earth,
culminating in a voyage beyond the description of words.

stars flash before my eyes as they water,
the weight of cars descend upon me,
words become trapped deep in my throat,
my tongue becomes as thick as rope,
all but a whimper can't escape my mouth.

the subtle beauty in your laughter sets me on fire,
delighted I find myself in flames of infatuation,
mortified of my own inability to put forth my case,
potentially risking the unbearable scenario of losing you.

you remove your hair from your face,
unveiling the sparkling green diamonds posing as eyes,
I'm blinded by the shining of your smile,
rocked to the core by the symphonic nature of your voice,
sent cross the universe when your hands touch mine.

I shiver by the thought of your body against mine,
dizzy when you whisper promises in my ear,
my heart damn near explode with bliss when you lean in,
lips forming what I believe is the invitation to a kiss,
the surface of the moon seem all but closer when the encounter,
of our lips is no longer the recurring dream I have during
the loneliest of nights.

so soft, yet so firm this collision of emotions...
I'm in awe of the power hidden inside us,
unleashed by the most natural of acts.

    OMG OMG OMG.

    This is without a doubt in my mind, no dubious thoughts or signs anywhere, the best poem of yours I have ever, ever, EVER read.

    It's so freaking aesthetically, metaphorically, liliterally, in every way I can think, pleasing.

    It's great in the beginning, but once I got to 'the subtle beauty in your laughter sets me on fire,' I was blown away. From then on it's spectacularly perfect.

    'the encounter,
    of our lips is no longer the recurring dream I have during
    the loneliest of nights.'
    I love the concept and portrayal of these lines.

    'unveiling the sparkling green diamonds posing as eyes,'
    I love the way this is phrased. What it makes you imagine...brilliant imagery.

    'the subtle beauty in your laughter sets me on fire,
    delighted I find myself in flames of infatuation,'
    this too. It reminds me of really, really good prose. It just flows really well and is an amazing simile.

    I love how in the beginning you are surreal and describe everything in an intangible and pround way, and then we get to see your literal interpretation of those words. Brilliantly and beautifully penned. I'm sorry I waited to long to read it...

    I wish I could give this a ten...
