From a Safe Distance Only
Just listen to that silence
If you dare ..
I guarantee it’s like no
other sound
that you my love, shall
ever likely hear ..
A hollow resonation felt
both loud and crystal clear …
Not to mention deep ..
Yes, it hit him like a freight
train hard ..
Through the very soles
of both his feet ..
And what about all those
fingertips and nudges
You might well ask …
Of course, they hurt too
he would admit ..
Indeed it was those subtle
strokes and gentle prompts
That reminded
him so very much of lovers
long since passed
As yet tho from a safe distance only
