1/31/93- Eros

                                            1/31/93
 
                        Eros
 
 The pleasure of feeding
 On looks and glimpses
 To appreciate the bouquet for years and years
 Letting it grow on me as it should
 Thoughts of piloting your swells
 
 Uncharted territory licked by radiant sunlight
 Wet, musty paths for walking, lingering
 My weakness for weakness
 My weakness your strength
 I devour these places I've never seen
 
 I will not fill you with promises, hardly
 Hardly
 Only with what I have
 And you can show me what you know, want
 Need
 
 Explore with me
 The land we share
 While the trees shudder from the passing breeze
 And the sea overruns and subsides
 Our breath caresses together the words
 That need not be said aloud.
