up & away floats my red balloon heart       lifted lightened &        (when) you kiss me feverish, the spring flowers crushed beneath (our) bare feet & i think this must be the price to the universe paid for love so sweet & so unrelenting, darling, you are the stillest of seas after storms have swept past, the softest lips i have ever touched my body your body & be gentle with me: in your arms is some kind of otherworld, the dis joint ed passing of time bothtooquick and  f a r  t o o  s l o w but i am left always quite wanting more & we become galaxies when the lights go out, starlit & desperate for expansion from the confines of our selves so, o love of mine, let us mudddy the space between you & i with uncharted exploration.  a poetry of flesh on flesh & i will lay you down tonight.
