Sidney Beck Poet Free verse

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.
