Knowing her better (2012-13)

  

Will I know her better

If I climb inside her skin,

Feeling what she feels

When my fingers stroke

Those sacred places

I only touch on the outside,

Those places that make her stir.

Will I feel it all

And think all that she thinks,

When I feel those tender spaces

Deep inside her,

When I only feel the surface now,

When I want to dig deep

From where it all derives,

The pressing in and drawing out,

Like a religious ritual,

Where for an instant

A part of me reaches

The most holy places in her,

Will I feel it all

If I can get deeper inside

Where all this transpires,

Love oozing out of me

And into her,

Filling her with my sacred wine
