Surrender
as a 4 am fog drifts before it lifts
from a secluded spring mountain lake,
silently shall I rise into your thoughts;
momentarily floating before clinging,
leisurely searching for what I desire to take,
successfully resisting all attempts of evaporation,
warm and moist, wrapping around your consciousness
with fixed intensity, busy sculpting hidden expectations,
until your every thought becomes totally engulfed
and you, unable to resist captivating view,
no longer able to turn and escape by flight,
you surrender as, thick like humidity on a damp august night,
sensations of me surround, cover, permeate and penetrate
until I have become tangibly imbued in you
Oh, yes others have tried
to swan dive into those eyes
but they have failed; for none have dared
to penetrate as deeply as I;
and that scares you, this I know,
but what frightens you more
is that I experience no fear
at devouring your soul
and as easily as sweet, golden honey drips
from the jar that is tipped...
there you are,
relinquished and spread,
shamelessly before me
and completely I see
exactly who and what you are
and what you desire and need to be
so shhh,,, I know, I know
there's no need to explain
there are no facades nor barricades
that you could hide behind, abstain or refrain,
by far too easily and by far too clearly
do I understand you;
and so I remain...
fight it not, surrender
and I in return
shall deny you never
for we have danced this dance
with eternal pleasure
for far too numerous pasts to endeavor
to count or dismiss and so, my dear,
surrender and accept this -
we shall continue to dance this way united...
together...
forever
