Pressure

the tension claws its way up my neck into my head consumed by a raging inferno of pain this mass of sells begs for deliverance my stomach as if in sympathy erupts violently tightening my chest choking the breath from my lungs in a lifeless vacuum of stars and color an eternal journey of fear and passion tears kiss a daunted face I gasp my body trembling and cold I flirt with the pressures that cause men to betray their will and relinquish themselves of time but in this moment of weakness I reach out to you the sanctuary of my desire love fills my veins warms my Heart as I strive to touch life purpose fills my soul In growing to know myself I grow to want you more as I pursue my dreams marred at times by the mystery of my affliction I am spent with your love Life once more is meaningful
