Exaltation
The background was muted and blurred as we dance
For all of our senses are numb save the heart
Vivid to me is your voice and your form only
For your presence swallowed up everything
Exaltation and music made our dance move fluid
And in our repeated circulation
We are suddenly caught by a whirl of tenderness
Pricking our hearts with excitement tip needles
Your concupiscent hold on my waist
Stirred sunken love granules in my stomach
It rose up and sent red strokes on my cheek
Only to reveal my hidden weakness
You just smile by the accidental confession
Yet I see in your eyes a sweet premonition
Flashes about you and I in varied style
Performing sensuous ritual for soul union
This is not a steamy dream you see?
To be seize by love is to conquer time
This moment is most precious to me
I won’t trade this to insipid immortality
