Electricity
I see flashes in my eyes
You are my sparks
I do not want to go back
Your body is made for me
Fits me like a glove
Please don’t give our formula
To anyone
I do not want to go home
Cover me with a new wave
Just now with you
I began to identify myself
I challenge you to battle
Let's use every floor and surface
And in every song about you and me
There is a note about fierce passion
We are electricity,
you feel the current between us
We know each other intimately
and you figured me out
You hacked my code so easily
We are electricity
We are love
You are my sparks
I do not want to go back
Your body is made for me
Fits me like a glove
Please don’t give our formula
To anyone
I do not want to go home
Cover me with a new wave
Just now with you
I began to identify myself
I challenge you to battle
Let's use every floor and surface
And in every song about you and me
There is a note about fierce passion
We are electricity,
you feel the current between us
We know each other intimately
and you figured me out
You hacked my code so easily
We are electricity
We are love

Dear K,
I admire your self challenge. You get to find out all different things about yourself.
Your poem is terrific. “Please don’t give our formula
To anyone ” Very clever phrase. A request to keep things only between the two of you is key to trust and privacy. So important.
Wonderful write. H🌷

Thanks Honoria, I still feel a little out of place so your comments have helped keep me motivated and trying harder. As I write more I am starting to feel like I might have something to offer. :) (it's probably just in my mind but still it is a great distraction for me or maybe I am a little addicted to getting positive feedback right now as I need it, sorry I am thinking out loud again)

You're doing great, keep it up. Everyone has their unique perspective, but a few tools I use, and you may or may not find this useful, is to fill out the dimensions of the write, make it spring to life before the mind's eye, with scene descriptors, body language, haptics, it makes the write more tangible. Thank you for being here with us.

Thanks Daniel. I appreciate that a lot! I really love that you have given me some suggestions also. I will definitely take those to heart. I am a little unsure about the body language one though but I will figure it out. ;)

They say only 20 percent of conversation is verbal, we emanate a lot of what we're thinking and feeling through facial expressions and the way we move. So it's about describing these things and letting them express the feeling subtlety. Describing the scene is inexorably colored with your emotional state. It's my pleasure. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Favourite lines (together they could make a verse in itself):
Your body is made for me
Fits me like a glove....
We are electricity
We are love
and:
Let's use every floor and surface [suggests a place everywhere gets made love on]
Your body is made for me
Fits me like a glove....

AC/DC "You Shook Me all Night Long". Best of luck the power doesn't go out and you stay charged.

Great song. The power grid buys extra electricity off me to keep me from exploding. ;)

This piece is an example of your versatility; multiple themes, multiple moods, all done with extreme readability.

Oh boy!... Stepping back in time again... wow... and that note, I guess I kept going. :p I really appreciate your take... and seeing the multiple themes and moods. So weird reading this again.. it's been a long time. Extreme readability. I love it! Thank you! Ted

I once told you that I'd read ALL your poems (before I leave). I may be late on a number of the pieces, but I'm catching up.
