The Sacred Kiss

The Sacred Kiss

my lips softly pressed upon hers

and i could feel

her fervency

her urgency

rise to the surface

to meet that of my own

yes,

it has been too long

since either of us

have heard that song

of unbridled passion

play its melodic harmonies

upon our breath

and into our realities

the little men danced

upon my loins

for their time for sleep

was over

yes,

she has uncovered

my secret

the adversity i held within

about my celibate

reclusive ways

and inclinations

have been exposed

and this day

i was exploring

what i secretly dreamed of

during those lonely nights of denial

when my primal urges and i

wrestled with reason

and false convictions

i ask my self

could it be this easy

for me to fall into this pit

whose walls allowed me not

in their Teflon like slipperiness

to grasp any sanctity

no control of my plight

i do not care now

for this excursion

into this realm of promise

of divine bliss

overwhelmed me

as

my lips softly pressed upon hers

for this sacred kiss
