VIRUS

Give myself protection
from that which
i fear most.

Deep
aching
longing
to be loved.

Held and healed
hold and feel
steal it

while i am
dreaming
again.

Always a gain
for lovers.

Pain
for others.

Love given
and surrendered
Taken
Cleaned
and remembered
Because it is me
"clean me"
cream me
scream free
quietly......

THE VIRUS

Given protection
from that which I fear
deep aching longing to be

held and healed
from love's pain
given
surrendered
in imagination's name
remembered in mine.
