Osmosis

Your length and mine cling to the other as their own
Nothing so fine as where we meet and breathe as one
Flesh of my flesh, not of genetics but of love
Stretch as I stretch, be of my texture as of trust

Now as my hand explores your hand
The skin upon your thighs alive
Somewhere I know you understand
The essence of my body's cry

Skimming the perfect slopes of warmth and pain
To depths unclaimed and kind
The velvet and silk, the finest of furs as if of fire
The infinite skills used without knowledge or desire

Now as our shells collide so slow
We give and take with merest ease
Touching where we must surely go
This place that we must never leave

Or be forsaken to our shrinking days
To watch the hours unwind
Our softness alone
The strength of our senses melds and twines
Skin, flesh, and bone
Exchanging their substances through time

Now as our faces fall in flood
And part of me is part of you
All of our cells are charged with love
Our blood is mixed and flows anew

As of this moment there is less of me
To see that love is blind

Now as our faces fall in flood
And part of you is part of me
All of our cells are charged with love
Our blood is mixed and rushes free

As of this moment there is less of you
To lose this form we find
