Positive
Reckless abandon to feel desire
Carelessly fanning lonely fires.
Flames leap to warm the soul
A moment captured
And a yawning hole closes.
A vacancy filled for but a brief moment.
A tenderness felt within a comforting arm.
Strangers embrace: instinct takes over
Souls ignite ~
~ Where’s the harm?
Instant gratification:
Adverse denial.
(approx. 1994)
