Hearts Touching
©B. A. Luceigh, 8/4/2017

My blouse to your shirt
over skin and tissue
your left chest to my left breast
our hearts underneath
touching.

Beating revelations freed
sensed by co-rhythms
longing for synchronization
two as one
no longer asking
who am I, who are you
enfolded in the answer of we
in that tender moment
of intimacy
transcending separation
as our hearts embrace
in mutual generosity.

With reluctant parting
the sensation still held
transforms now
into a cherished memory
of timeless space
where our hearts
can remain forever
touching.
