wakening into a wave of love
is a different kind of delight
nourishing the whole being
but particularly the roots
swelling into the ground
in pure belonging
it might be
when pleasure ends
that our boundaries define themselves
not as an intellectual decision
but as a natural border
like a river of love
defining where one person ends
and the other begin
but pleasure is essential
to reach the understanding of
who we are
in whatever form
we choose
