My Secret Place

Refuge can be just where you want it

There are times where I am despondent
Lost in the sea of anger and pain
Where the world is upon my shoulders
All I can hear is the downpour of rain

My only boon is a secret escape
That is reserved right just for me
I close my eyes and soon you are there
It is you that will set me free

At first I cannot see you
But I know you are close at hand
I feel your touch slide from left to right side
Accross my shoulders to say I'm your man

Your touch electrifies my senses
You’d think I've never felt you before
As you settle with me and sit down so softly
I become clay you mold at my core

You take my face in your hands and affirm me
Your eyes meet mine just to say
You are just the one I have been waiting for
And I will stand at your side come what may

As you kiss me you move in closer
Taking your place astride my lap
Soon cast aside all we held deep inside
Self control test so much it would snap

I am no longer myself when I am with you
Someone stronger, more assured and bold
It is in you I have found my refuge from life
No longer plagued with the cares of the world

When I open my eyes for a moment I feel you
How your love has given me new life
You smell, your taste, the intimacy you gave
All that was wrong in an instant set right

I move on from my own secret place
Where you wait for me to return
To tell me you love me and how special I am
And give me passion that can only but burn

The is an emotional poem that brings to mind ones own secret place. I am touched with the words that speaks to bring one back to life. Your touch electrifies my senses. It is that electric charge in the brain that crosses the synapses that allow the dendrites to function. Great writing.
