Wide Fucking Open



Live. Let's Live, he said.
Wide fucking open.
Love. Let's love.
Like this is our last day.
Kiss. Let's kiss.
Like this kiss is our first-
-And our very last.


Lets risk, he said.
Find each other near the abyss.
Love at the edge of a cliff.
Stand on a sliver of razor.
Love-arms wide open.
Dance to the end of reason.
-And then go past.


Reach for love before time.
Cry for love yet to be shown.
Speak words of intimacy before they arrive;
Bare heart and soul.
Wide fucking open.
Reach farther.
-And then unmask.


Fly. Let's fly, he said.
Disregard chains of fear.
Make the fire star your goal.
Feel the moon create you whole.
Savor.  Drink each touch.
Feel each drop. Love
-And make it last.


Let's leap, he said.
Into the fire.
Sear your skin with my love.
Life will hold you.
Love will embold you.
Burn me into you.
-And touch the scar.


Savor love as if for the last time...ever.
Taste that sweet wild rush. Then,
Let go and tumble.
Love past the point of return.
Feel your mind explode.
Come back again.
-And then again.


Drink. Let's drink, he said.
Drink from my lips, the nectar.
Drink from my skin, holiness.
Let me feel your heart
Beating wide fucking open.
Drown in the joy.
-And go all in. 



Love one who is yet unknown.
Be one who feels all.
Be one who falls but rises.
Be two who are one, dance life.
Live with no regret.
Wide fucking open.
-And be one with me.
