Only As Far As The Next Dream

Golden
She leaps
And is nestled within my solar plexus
With such joy
That the seed of life threatens to leave us
In despair
.

She holds in surprise as we withdraw
Doubts for only the moment
She curls within me
Courses through our veins
The unity providing
.

"Where are we?" I hear you say
Speaking with my soul
In yourself ...
I answer "Here"
.

I awoke for awhile
We spoke still in our mind
We never met as our souls departed.
.

Besieged by the doubts of social understanding
Your heart lies
Lost
To fall from so high
The agony of landing
Should we forget the treatment
Closing eyes to ecstasy unbelieved
.

In truth ...
We are only as far as the next dream
In our sleepless nights of ecstasy
Like silent flights, flawed with perfection
The pained erection has no meaning
.

And so from within me look as you did before
Recall the off-shore wind with latent nostalgia
That scent revealing the unremembered
Something learnt
It's not as far as it seemed ...
