Yes !

YES ! Written in my palms Within the plasma tempest of my cellular flow Courses in the pulmonary oxygen The direction linear fate Souls writing indicates Always through pass of time Reverberates My breathing in Links my hands Physical over mental Pours consistent Suffused empire shudders Tangible still earthquakes On a single point Of longing Yearning It filters me Through the hours Designs my wishes Sleeping naked In a diaphragms rising Lake of want Each morning in helpless moans At this state The continent The ocean Of my empty arms Emptying this need in me Fills me more Than any love I have ever Known Re-born I hanker in swelling desire Even lust exhales Its animal fire And swims in the sails Expressive Storm wracked and howling As I sit motionless In this envelope Of aching final Suspended In what it means To be To me Completely Powered by an undeniable The force surge Inscribes Etches Ensnares And capitulates To recognition Without resistance Builds a formulation of my destiny Written in my palms Within the plasma tempest Of my cellular flow The thunderclap Resounds from above YES ! I am in love ( And I weep And I laugh Each morning in helpless moans At this state The continent The ocean Of my empty arms )

You express well both the joy of being in love and the loneliness of waking up alone, Colin. "The ocean of my empty arms" is a remarkable analogy. Brilliant work! Love, Carolyn
