Beneath My Touch


Her back is my canvas
My fingers crawl
Over its arched doorway going down in a squall
Of mixed hues and perfumed tunes that capture love’s fumes

Each finger assigned to a mountain to climb
As my brush swings back and forth in metric time
You rise beneath my touch wanting it to never stop teasing so much
Undulating strokes feed the flame’s throat in a song of ecstasy I float

Paint the pain away with each delicate blend you wipe away chagrin
Each picture brings me closer to your heart my beauty, my frame
Beneath my touch you come alive you free my love you take my chains
Art of your passion and song sends me to end of depths forlorn stains

Voodoo magic casts your spell take me to a place beyond heaven and hell
Bind me to your palette of joy taste the portrait behind a shy love’s coy
Never free me from your art of color and seduction
Until we both explode in love’s illustrated eruption
