Past Life Sex Therapy

In the natural chain of events you move me from the couch to the bed
laying my head gently on the pillow as my eyelids flutter, 
shutting out everything but the moment.
All is quiet accept for the writhing rhythm, the in and out of us.
in 	and	out	
in 	and 	out
We leave each other and come together again, conscience of,
the sultry undertones of breath that fade
in 	and 	out
breathe-affection-breathe-desire-tilt-pleasure-pressing-beauty-pulsing-emotion-breathe
in	and 	out
I catch a glimpse of you in cascading street light, 
our eyes meet and a comforting Nostalgia begins to throb
in	and	out
Your lips on mine and flashes of familiarity make me think 
we’ve done this before in another life
breathe-love-push-passion-flood-friendship-glide-laughter-swivel-happiness-breathe
in	and 	out
This exchange of body and soul seems too complete to have been born in our lifetime 
and this connection too deep to have been uncovered just yesterday.
