Let Me

LET ME When a smile pours From your face in delight Let me feel refreshed In its liquid softness. If distance separates us Let me sense your spirit close As you touch me deep And light my way Let me soak my soul In your bright water When shark attacks with gory teeth Let me swim between And bloody it as a matador Or share its sharp tips And as the waves Swell us to the surface The closeness of a heartbeat Is all that separates us. Let me be No further away.

REALLY good imagery in this one, Sydney. You don't need to steal any of my horde (is that how you put it?) YOu have plenty of your own!
