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
