Skin Without History

Deep chords pathetically move within my heart -
         a voice that is speaking; and yet, mute.
         All abandoned hopes still refute
me even though we are far apart.
Never touched with passionate bliss,
         my body seeks beauty in the arms of hope
         on the plain of heaven's flowered-slope.
Desired one! I long for your burning kiss.
         The tempest thunder calm in heaven above
         explodes in my heart's court of love.

Your eyes hold too much of the sky
         in their cerulean-tinted hue.
         I am enamored by you.
I am not mended by my cry.
Your hands look soft and tender,
         as gentle as feathers fixed in space.
         How I yearn for you to caress my face.
O! How you make my soul kinder.
         The little girl within me aches so much
         for the ardor of your delicate touch.

Sensorial stirrings move a heart so fragile
         that I am breathless in the wonder
         of it all. I am swept asunder
by gulfs of desire deeper than the Nile.
Do I betray myself, an expense more dear
         than I shall ever be able to pay?
         Love verily is not the way
of fairdom - yet more severe.
         Though your hands touch over my skin never,
         you move through me like a silent zephyr.
