Feel

Now touched be long forgotten skin.
Startled, come to life again.
From at arm's length do pull thee near, 
And awakened seething bodies seer.
Like a hurricane tamed in a bellow's gasp,
Mine breath be stilled in taken grasp.
For all that was dark turns to light in reveal,
And choose does a soul to feel.
