SENSE

His scent is of my youth
And of my old age.

His touch is every exquisite memory
And dream
Combined into one spark of life.

His eyes are the window to my soul
And my eternity;
They are pools of liquid fire
In which I bathe my weary body
And become beautiful once more.

His skin is sweet like golden honey,
And his sweat is the sea-spray on my lips
As I dive in.

His words are the voice of my innermost thoughts;
He sings the melodies that only I hear.

He is human, completely human,
Not only human,
And not just a dream.
