IMPRESSION

I take note of a calm dark sea that lies far and long beyond black crystal sand.

A yellow half-moon that rests low enough for fragile little waves to sway to sleep,

Siding my wishes for your touch upon my hands.

Gentle but deep!

Touch me today so I won’t grieve tomorrow.

Give me chances to hold and not let go.

Tell me sweet words for my knees to fail my weight

Kiss thy lips O sweet man, for thy life’s sake!

Feel the depth and passion of my earnest glances

I’m in awe of you too much beyond pictured circumstances.

Like a thin clear bubble of hope, that floats around for my mind to digest

Fitting partners upon thy heart’s request!

I touched a thought, that today I now know has tantalized me many times.

Impassioned love and its ecstasy

Yes, I know today what desires mean to me.

Thy humblest kisses that calm such hastened beats of thine heart!

A soft rain once again has crept into my view.

Become a constant of my thoughts and gained much acquaintance with my speech.

And these long wishes and reminiscence of something new,

O has long become wishes beyond thy reach!

Again I dreamt of the fragile waves that made me first think of you,

Yes, the night before tonight, I saw you when I closed my eyes

You kissed me upon my bosom and I was scorched by you.

Pardons for thy foolish words: Kiss thy lady before she dies!

I lie awake thinking of dreams in vain

For I know most things are never meant.

But desire was acted upon without means to refrain

Thy chest is a dance floor for the joys thine heart has dreamt!
