braille to the touch...

Love is blind

You wrote in Braille upon my heart

  tattoo'd  black etchings darkly lit

echoes of what was once impressionist art

     vanquish'd with a glance of thy sword

words not decipherable in the name of love

  inscribed delectation's sans an endorse'd mark

vintage designs deleted of scroll'd scriptures expression

   signature'd confessions bestowed within crimson's pen  

hush'd in unsettling breathless interpretations,

     blindly I followed til you resonate'd in barely touch

You wrote in Braille upon my heart
tattoo'd black etchings darkly lit
echoes of what was once impressionist art
vanquish'd with a glance of thy sword
words not decipherable in the name of love
inscribed delectation's sans an endorse'd mark

Tremendous loss and art in these words.

[Frieda P]

Thanks so much for your kind words Pryde.

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

Ah, touching and exotic to the point of loving, well done.

[Frieda P]

Oh 'exotic' love that, thanks muchly Thomas.

Inscribing a braille message that only they will understand, instead of a spoken truth or an aggressive stance, trusting you to guard the braille on your skin and heart with everything at your disposal . . . How enticing, I love this.

[Frieda P]

Braillent write my friend. Clever title to match. To see actuality we must first feel to really know in depth.

You gave colors to the tired statement "Love is blind", Frieda. There are still millions of dead statements that you might want to resurrect! :) Very beautiful.
