      NIGHT WITHOUT SLEEP      

 
    i got a chance    
   
to taste romance    
   
     again last night  
   
it had been
 
     so long    
   
i forgot
 
     the dance  
   
but after awhile    
   
     of awkward talk    
   
and nervous smiles  
   
     i fell right in    
   
as years melted away  
   
     into the slow    
   
wet lubrication    
   
     of natural movements  
   
set free by touch    
   
     that meant much more    
   
than all those other    
   
     dark  anonymous touches  
   
touch that liberated    
   
     me from scars  
   
touch with name
 
     with face    
   
and understanding    
   
     feeling heart
   
as imperfections united    
   
     our touch
 
was so warm    
   
     and wonderful  
   
we did not    
   
     want to stop  
   
for our hearts  
 
     and souls    
   
had been
 
     too long starved
 
in so much    
   
     need of this night  
   
night without sleep    
   
     sleep deprived    
   
for this soul deep  
 
     relief  
   
this joyous feast    
   
     of mutual
 
contentment    
   
     that stirred up
 
echoes    
   
     of further needs
 
in each of us  
   
     gut longing for more    
   
of this touch  
   
     touch that both frees    
   
and captures me  
   
     for i want    
   
to see him    
   
     again    
   
tonight
