THE UNCONSUMATED

Folder: 
JOURNAL #20

you speak of such fantastic things

to simply borrow is your take

a truly delicious liberal desire

has become our favorite fashion

yet you practically auction off your lust

at an astonishing rate

such crass measure per rawly quoted unit

could scare mythic heroes

while poised together on the edge of we

know not what

we see a colorful oblivion

staring back

almost impressed by our passionate efforts

oh how it enchantably beckons to the both

of us

come hither in such glorious sparks

your hands torturously itch to lay claim

to such flesh of fact

surreal desire catches your every breath

I can feel your crashing need in my own

traitorous wants

perhaps I am just a tad too wishful in my

excitable perceptions

sometimes I hope

yet all the same

hope not yet

that you are just what you seem

an enigmatic man perched on the very edge of

such enthralling personal discovery

why, in certain moments of the even simplest

sharing

I feel a depth in you that I would gladly ache

for years just to be allowed one heart pounding

instant to know fully

passionately

reverently unhindered

and with your complete participation and highest

bid of tender loving welcome

but should such moment never occur

then this written dedication of lust will have

to do

either way 'tis no matter

for the let down will eventually come

as for me it invariably does

however slim the odds are to the contrary

ah, but never for my plight fret though love

because the trip

(though amazing it has indeed been)

leading to

what shall in the end likely never come to

pass

was (so far at least)

an experience I wouldn't trade a hundred

yet lived life times for

as I truly believe

'The Unconsumated' is our gift...........
