You Complete Me

My eyes look for you ... My heart bleeds the truth, My spirit enters your soul completely. Where do I end and you begin? A mosh pit swirl of emotions and ids, Each breath a swollen anticipation. My mouth whispers your being, Like blossoms pressed to the wind - Carried to seed in a place of longing. My courses run as rills in spring-tide, Awakening marrow and sinews with life, Wonderment tying us like silken knots. My tympans tremble with your name, Its fascination like a blade in my gut ... Tearing desire with ragged certainty. How do I tell you - what words?!? What I see in your eyes is ME ... NOT my reflection, but my soul. As if your own, and yet ... A knowing and a surety, fine, As diaphanous as winter snow ... We are separate and one, at once, I am lost IN you and without ... And knowing all this, feeling it, By doing the above, Reaching up ... You complete me. ~ Honorable Mention ~ in the "You Complete Me" Poetry Contest, James Edward Lee Sr, Judge & Sponsor. ~ 3rd Place ~ in the "'Strand Pick G, Any Theme, Any Form" Poetry Contest, Brian Strand, Judge & Sponsor.
