This Striking Sensation-

This striking sensation-
Of kindness and immortality 
When told by a bee
Sounds just as sweet as honey
His skin of velvet 
When pressed with mine
So unknowingly
Yet as if he knew, absolutely!
That I would be his certainly
A love song in reality
That he alone has shown me
And if this man were wine
Dare I say how drunk I\'d be.
A life of lush-
No luxuries lost
Only him and me
This is how I feel-
Naked from his perfume
All senses severed plush
And unearthed with dignity
For all I knew was to survive 
But I\'d been plucked and-
Taught in one night\'s time 
To inhale and exhale
Preciously.
