Through this partnership
I guide her into a walk
Excitement growing

The fervent love song
Exquisite communication
Dictating my mood

A stranger to me
Yet here in my arms souls touch
Taking my breath away

The passion unfolds
Like two ilicit lovers
Only we exist

We move as though one
Each feeling the others
thoughts
Our souls so entwined

Lost in our own world
We look confused, embarrassed
When the music stops

in the end I think
there's some closure, the old man
told me about reiki

as he coughed sadly
about christ's evil, and showed
his dowsing necklace...

so much like little
gerald gardner did he seem
lost in his own myths...
