Own Words
He was here last night
making love to me
with his eyes closed
my name
in the end
a frantic prayer
on his lips
warning, begging,
asking, pleading
a voice deep inside him
a part that was
no longer man
raw open wounded cries
Gods own creature
inside me
makin me his own
owning each and every
gasp of air I took
slowly scenes changed
without pause
seamless
blending
of skin
sweat
soul
sex
air heavy
with our scents
hearts beating
simultaneously
anthemic even
heaven bleeding
from our very pores
so that in this death
I met God
my struggle for faith
came to an end
I found my religion
he and I in our truth
woman and man
and I slept deep
heavy in my dreams
his skin searing
near my own
quietly so that
even as we slept
we claimed each other
