Becoming one





Friday, May 15, 2015

I touch it with my hands
But feel it inside me
The old Beatles song
Ringing in my head,
“I am you, and you are me,
and we are all together,”
tied up in a know
neither of us wants
to escape from
each move drawing us closer
and more deeply bound,
a binding that breaks flesh
to get to the spirit
I cannot breathe
Or think
Only feel,
Each lingering finger
Finding space to fill
Like the tip of tongue
Easing in and out
Of the vacant space
Left by an extracted tooth,
Pressing deeper into its hold
To taste if not blood
Then something just as sweet,
Never satisfied
Always needing to go deeper
Binding tighter,
To touch more
Until we really do
Become one
