Currents

I immerse myself in your ways
And I find myself swimming in my own depths
Returned to fresh waters I knew only in theory
Returned to dammed waters I knew were true

Awash in your ways
I find myself in tears unshed for years
I find myself renewed
I find myself alone, and, somehow, with you

All theories take on new life
Resonating, sounding new depths
Revitalizing, seeding sleeping places
And I somehow cease to fear

Is it true, you are my soul-twin?
Is it true, you are the one
To walk me into death, then back again
We walk, skip, run into the light?

In you, there is no memory.
In you, there only is.
In you, there lives all possibility.
In you, the pulsing flow of life.

I have no control
These oceans in me belong to you
Salt them with your wisdom
Cleanse them with your spirit

For I am yours
This free spirit that moves with the world
Is, now and forever
Given over to you

…And if, in all your wisdom and grace
You give us both unto the world
So much the better for us both
For I will always be part of you

Do Not Lie; I Love You

Do not lie to you
About your intentions
About what you want

When your body speaks volumes
With the heat of desire
With the sweetness of kisses
With the tenderness of touch
With your need for me

Do not lie to you
About your intentions
About what you want

When your mind reels
Over past events
Over past relations
Over past failures
Over the intense truth of you-and-me

Do not lie to you
About your intentions
About what you want

When you cannot lie
Despite all your lies
Despite all your claims
Despite all your resistance
Despite my naïve trust in you

Do not lie to me
About your intentions
About what you want

When I, in vulnerability, state deep truths
Give, thoroughly, everything you ask
Give, honestly, everything I want
Give, eventually, all that I am
Give, helplessly, it all to you

Do not lie to me
About your intentions
About what you want

When I can see through
To all your truths
To all your complexities
To all your fears
To all your love

Do not lie to me

When I cherish you
And I am wise enough to understand why you lie
And smart enough to learn what you’re saying
And bold enough to stand behind the truths I find
And in love enough to share their treasures with you

Do not lie to you
Do not lie to me

When it changes nothing of the truth
And nothing of you
And nothing of me

Do not lie

(I love you)

A Kiss

He said to me, looking me in the eyes with so much love… “Kiss me.”  

And I kissed him, wanting to fill him with my passion, to translate it… and he pulled away and looked at me gently, and said: “No.  It doesn’t always have to be world-changing.  Just kiss me.”  

And he kissed me gently, and I kissed him back, and I could FEEL it… and it was good.  

And it changed me.
