Sense of touch

by Maria Terezia Ferencz


A masterpiece is his touch
brush strokes finger painted
red with this heart's blood
my soulscapes his creation

A symphony is his touch
drowns out my pain with love
no sound loud enough
to silence the melody of him

A Bouquet is his touch
perfumescent of dream
flower once weak with lust
grown stronger with his seed

A Confection is his touch
no taste be sweet enough
to remove this from my tongue
sweet aftertastes of him

Magic is his touch
draws my soul through skin
breaking a spell cast once
awakening the one within

This is absolutely spellbinding and so wonderfully intense and touching. Loved all of the phrasings and descriptions, especially "no sound loud enough to silence the melody of him." An excellent write --- into favorites!

'awakening the one within'...yes, with the touch of refined energies vibrating from one to the other, creating a magnetic field, merging not only the space and time on the without but also creates an inner unity.This is beautiful.

I love how you've explored the different senses in this!

There is nothing to compare to the touch of one we love. Good stuff here.
