With all the innocence of old friends, wrapped in silent hoping, knowing but afraid to believe. The heart beats a bit faster as the words become free. No longer chained in what came before. Transformed by insight, a vision sent to each of us alone. And in those words were hidden truths that underlay what came before. A true affection melts in heat into a fire that burns free.
**With a breath was lit
What had always smoldered there
Ablaze on a wire**
Tentative in this new-found freedom. We touch delicately, lingering on the words that electrify the flesh and liquify defenses. Steam wafting in the air as emotion meets desire. Intoxicated by the ethereal beauty of it all. Left reeling, hearts traded, souls tangled and the lascivious nature of what was once hidden ravages the senses.
