What would it mean to slip forward, out of this skin and into yours? could i ever see the face of god when you touch me? couldi ever feel complete with or without you? unwrap my psyche. find me young and whole, no pieces missing. but now, adrift. watching the sail drift further from my sight. adrift on land as i lose you in the waves. what is freedom at any cost when you can't afford to cry? choose the nymph-like mermaids as you drown amidst their tresses. what does loss matter when your world is consumed by touch. a microphone may make your voice strong but an empty message is still weak. so put it in a bottle and send it on its way. let it settle into the soft skin of the ocean. as you search for your god. snake bite. empty venom. redemption in a word. help....need...love....you...complete...hunger.

I know your face. as we meet on the street. pass on by. we meet again over coffee. on either side of the room. weeks would pass and i would see you again and know your face. funny to think i can recognize a stranger. even carry on a relationship, but never know your name. where will we meet again? when will come the day when we speak? will it shatter the delicate dance we've created. will you see me as an acquaintance while i've though of you as more? can the reality be more than my fantasy? until i can gather more courage i'll continue to "run into you" until you know my face and my name. a casual obsession.
