SILENCE~
I used to misplace my sanity with him.
Embrace time, lounging in the seraphic delight of his flow
drenching me like rains of intimate history.
I used to allow it to signify something profound
just to impress my thighs each time I granted him in.
I’d let my mind drift and gaze as he kissed away
the fragile folds of secrets remaining in the passion we once knew.
It was jovial plagiarizing the beauty of the nights
with the same silk sins during the day..
But, the bond strengthened…
Yet,
while air impregnated our lungs with
mutual laughter, exhales in the midst of sultry Junes,
and lavender-scented sheets…
he and I….we wept separately at familiarity that warped
into something estranged.
He stopped consuming me with his hypnotic thirst,
Intellectually lethal lips..
and I…..
I needed shelter from the winery illusions he forgot to sip from,
Swallowing ephemeral ecstasy hoping we could create
the perfect sanctuary
but time…
it elevated voices covered in cries
and the ties that bind us
knotted in last tries..
Then
…..Silence.

Re. SILENCE~
I oft times find myself reading and re-reading your words (so deep the words are) and getting so caught up in the underlying current flow of the spoken as opposed to the "felt". Your ink always leaves me in a heightened state of sensitivity, Many times, not being able to clearly rationalize what I want to even say. That in itself my dear is power, unadulterated, intellectual power and writing at it's finest. You are art Tara

"You are art Tara" <--- Wow! Don't believe I've ever had my poetry or myself be defined in such a beautiful way. You've moved me deeply with your words. So humbled and thankful, Archie! Truly! :) Loving that you took her home, appreciate you immensely...

Dear Rain, what a masterpiece!
I don't even have the words to describe how beautiful this is and what it evoked...
He stopped consuming me with his hypnotic thirst,
Intellectually lethal lips.. > stunning phrasing!
and I…..
I am silent too...

Your reply was a joy to read, Duende. I do love when I 'silence' readers. ;)
It makes me feel as though my emotions were captured. Thank you for the lovely ink-nod...

The evolution of a relationship doesn't always conform to our wishes -
which is it's so important to love and emotionally record the experience
as it's happening. You've done this beautifully as well as demonstrated
a graceful letting go through the silence between words in this verse.
The space you've left in silence is more powerful than words ever thought.

The fires usually seem to dwindle, don't they? It's hard to find someone with whom to share "the perfect sanctuary." Requires trust and probably the ability to write as well as you Rain. Your phrasing and images thrill me, and I read each of your writes several times to get the full effect. Your "Silence" is golden!

At the beginning of this poem I was feeling envious of the love and your ability to express it so passionately. But the winds of change whipped my mind into a painful sadness. I cannot stand the thought of your heart suffering so.
Embracing your soul in warm ((((hugs)))) through the space between us...

Dearest Rain...
Beautifully heartbreaking write.
So much passion felt in your words...
Love that burned so bright white hot
and then no more. To feel so much and then
no more...a tragedy but so beautifully told.
Loves
Keith

i knew your subsequent words would

Achingly beautiful. I felt your words down into the depths of my core.
An ache which is all too familiar. Words which are reflective, in many aspects.
I wish it were all so much easier.
Thank you...for sharing this beautiful masterpiece 💓
