Mysterious and Magnetic

- - The way we were
           in poetic form, underlined and understood,
                        unlaced and then,
                                exposed –

  Like chapters taken from the vertebral column
              reality now realizes the connection

   
 I am curious     
      how the glossary of you can still remain:
                               untouched,
                              unexplained 
                           
                . .  The illustration being plain . .  
                               
                             Who knows
                           your definition
                                 when,
               Incomprehensible is the selection

                               _______
                              Pull me in
                                  again,
                        to the way we were
                               
             The electricity between you and me, 
                             is Magnetic
                    an uncontrollable sensation,
                           
                           Quite Mysterious
                               ________


You wonder: 
              While I am bare and unaware
       
       Will tracing space, aligning lace back in its place,
                  . . the vocabulary of me . .
                           
                             Somehow
                                bind,
                          your section
                              to mine
                          
                    To the way we were, 
                       in poetic form


    Together - -
            We are underlined and understood,
                        unlaced and
                                exposed –
           
            Reality now realizes the connection

With each line we write, we expose ourselves a little at a time. It is rare to find one who can read those lines and truly understand us. Lovely write

Lovely and sensuous, Brandy. I like the references to literary creation - chapters, glossary, illustration, definition. I love the line, "tracing space, aligning lace back in its place" for its cadence and internal rhymes. Also, how "We are underlined and understood / unlaced and exposed" brings the end back to the beginning in a full circle. It's a fav, well done, Brandy.
