Straight From The Belly

humans live for connections. 

physical contact is merely an option 

but give me someone

who

talks about their soul 

their darkened corners 

art 

the universe 

what brings them to life 

what burns, burns, burns 

someone who will smash their fists 

on the table 

when passion takes over 

the one who will open up 

their palms 

for me to read like a book 

talk about your god

rip yourself open and 

pour yourself over my kitchen table 

and i’ll sit, playing with your hair whilst you do so.

I wish I wasn't so tired. This deserves so much of my time. This is so true..
I wish I could make copies of this & pass them out for everyone to read.
This is just "right." This perspective. I can identify with this and it is nice because I don't get to experience that [identifying] often.

I'm honoured, Phoenix. Thank you.

i love this...yes, that person who is totally him or herself around us...the one with no pretenses or facades...

burn with passion, burn with life, be real...

and i will set the table for two.
