Umbilical


There is no other umbilical
to bond myself to you
more beautiful than the caress
of your gentle hand upon my face.

Along this conduit,
my soul floods into yours,
igniting like a newborn star,
dancing in the darkest nebula.

How could new sights
of days and nights seem glorious
to an emotional pauper,
without your eyes to share them with.

Words cannot encapsulate
the all-consuming elation
in our shared heart’s beat,
opening gateways to mounting love.

    "Along this conduit

    Your poetry is so in-depth and great use of vocabulary

    Great job. I like the imagery and the use of the big words (fortunately I knew what they meant). Anyways, good luck in the contest.

      Thank you very much. I often get myself into a loose - loose situation with wording. If I keep it simpler and accessible, often get's mentioned, if I go more 'wordy', people can't understand it lol.
