Touching the Intangible With a Smile

Sweltering tears incinerate gorgeous eyes on the way to drown perfection
Vocal tendons shredded from poignant packed reverberations
Blood-spattered limbs clutch tightly touching the intangible 
Beating hope trickles through a gentle heart stroke
Lips leisurely curve and I thank God for letting me grasp life once again

James this poem is rather beautiful in the penmanship area and it certainly seems to have a rather dark side - God Bless, MJ
