Poem

Holding back...
I'm holding back
AFRAID
My feelings dammed up
but the torrent pounds against the dam
I'm holding back
passion's turbulent flow gains momentum
holding....back
I'm tired of holding back
you agitate the waters
you play with the currents
you wreck havoc with my feelings
you make me froth and foam
I'm holding back...
The dam loosens
a crack appears 
water seeps through
another and another
a rumbling sound
the dam can't hold
the desire for you
rains down from the heavens
A deluge 
the river swells
churning, churning, churning
I'm trying to hold back...
keep emotions in check
battering ram against the damn dam
it shakes
with the throbbing weight
of pent up need
thundering sounds
the dam gives way
water bursts past the remains of restraint
an unstoppable force
redemptive release
I flood your soul
You flood my soul
and we are free
