I miss the intimacy. <br />But I do not miss the secrecy, <br />You use to keep your thoughts from me. <br /> <br />I miss your touch. <br />But not the distance I encounter so much, <br />When I catch you deep and aloof in thought! <br /> <br />I find I'm standing on a threshold... <br />Invited to come in. <br />Feeling I am welcomed, <br />As long as I pretend... <br />You are inside a space to share, <br />Even though I am without you completely there! <br />Until your reach beseeches me. <br />And I obey and come unquestioned. <br />To be taught lessons only you can teach! <br />My weakness is captured, <br />And you sense my defeat! <br /> <br />I miss the intimacy. <br />And I wish it wasn't an addiction! <br />But with you it is! <br />We each need this 'fix'. <br />Knowing it will be supplied... <br />Stripped and naked and embraced with sighs. <br />Thrusting with a love only two like us can share, <br />Bared... <br />Without complications to interfere or deny! <br />Yet kept climaxing, <br />In fulfilled unanswered wonder.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
