All

How simply
hands move
and
lips meet
bodies entwine
and all falls away,
everything is gone
all pain
all worry
all light
and darkness
all noise
and inhumanity
just skin
upon skin
Despair
giving way
to passionate tenderness
Confusion
departing
while Passion takes its place

Breath reaches out
to answer
the other's
rapturous
and defining,
it rises
and falls
in waves

How rapidly
reality
solidifies
when you are here
like this
(I taste your sweetness)
How quickly
time
disappears
into the void
of ecstasy

Misery
and
Sorrow
Worry
and
Anxiety
Despair
and
Thunder
fade into
gray

all is gone
when All is here
