In the Deepest Part

In the Deepest Part

Love
and sex
and lust
and touch

these
are things
not
meaning much

if all
we do
is
obligation

as if
to do
them
for ovation.

As
thrilling
as vacation
play

none
of these
can save
the day

when
near to death
or filled
with dread,

nothing
then
brings back
the dead.

Instead
then
intimate
in heart,

responsiveness
and
human
art,

the sense
that being
true
and real

becomes
what we
most want
to feel.

Would
I could
show
inner self,

open heart
and
clearest
shelf,

and take
in trust
all that
you are,

this
would
take us
very far.
