Proximity
Proximity becomes the balm
welcomed shelter from the storm
when two people drop the walls
finding peace in their arms
when the space has given way
walls no longer separate
between the souls needing more
than the speech from vapid tongues
it’s more than body parts
slotting A to match B
fireworks in a moment’s bliss
then comes darkness afterwards
instead the fruit is more sweet
confirmation that we exist
this is forgotten even when
intimacy is only sex
in each moment of embrace
another waits beyond time’s veil
the supply that buoys lives
treasures found none can deny
the nearness fills my life with love
affirming I should stay above
when two people drop the walls
each finds comfort above all else.
