Walking the Line

There is wanting for you to take me
completely, keenly, in every way
intensely
abandoning myself
my shell no longer needed
once my spirit, my voice, my juice
is in you
Then there is wanting to take you
acutely, fully, mindfully
intensely
noticing everything
in your words, on your skin
your eyes, your heart, your body
at my feet
And there is walking that line
of calm
in between
slipping constantly
