trees

Undefined
I exist

Define me
Find me
In the curves
Beneath your
Fingertips
Redefine me
In the loops and
Whorls and
Arches
Smooth flow of lines
Turning
Churning pulp
Into sighs
Contoured thighs
Undefined
Wind and breath
Sky and depth
I exist

The lonely weight
Gravity pulled
Trees
Arching her back

i think i like love undefined, i dont know we can ever fully define it, though def a trace here or there on the fingertips is never bad...smiles.

Excellent! It completely sucked me into the mind of the speaker; a world where the beauty of nature and human intertwine creating new beauty in itself. Well that's how I interpeted it anyway. Also, reminded me of a short poem I wrote:

Touch

Venus, Mars, the Moon and stars,
sea, land, salt and sand,
fire and wind - I touch your skin.

Keep writing, this is great reading.
