Opening Petals of Want
you touch me
and I fall away
to nothing
breaking apart
into a thousand
petals of want
I am as bewitched
as the trail
that lies beneath
your hand
incantations
sing through my blood
and I am wrought,
with my need
to list into you
at just a touch
I need to inhale
but,
you breath life
into every molecule
to overflow my spirit
and in the essence
of love
I lay in want
of the masters
hand
and to fall as petals
at his feet
