Lost For Words

These Words Are Not Mine
They Are Borrowed,

Like Everything 
On This Journey.

Still… They Penetrate. 
As A Knife Through Soft Skin

Touch My Heart Like
Water Laid Upon A Stone. 

Press Firmly To Me 
With A Forged Heat

Scatter My Feelings 
In A Power Of Hurricanes 

Until I Recognize Myself
Being Changed Forever

Like The First Time
I Touched Your Lips

Wordless, Breathless,  

Lost.
