A world away
I feel your words,
enticing me,
exciting me,
arousing me,
confusing me,
inspiring me,
teaching me,
opening me,
bringing forth in me
emotions
beyond the pale.
A world away
I feel your truth,
touching me,
holding me,
caressing me,
kissing me,
loving me,
wanting me
in ways
that make me
need you ever more
with each
new word
I read.
