Karen Touzalin Poems

I have been singing a new song
lately,
humming low
sweet notes,
...

Where do I end
where do we begin,
I am not sure anymore.
It seems I can no longer exist as a single cell organism
...

I want to revoke my state of independence
I want to go back to coupledom and live with you,
conjoined
in connubial bliss.
...

Your milk of loving kindness
Flows like rain
Flooding my thoughts
With fresh kisses,
...

In your mouth,
I am precious pearl
Diamond cut
woman
...

Sometimes,
in order for me to write, i do not speak for days
until desperation forces me to
create poetry
...

If we meet again tonight,
i choose not to recognize your familiar embrace.
I will pretend that we do not meet and spend countless hours
beneath an omniscient and mercurial moon
...

We were younger then
photographs frame our innocence,
The promise of love
smiles swollen with dreams and wide-eyed curiosity
...

I am elated,
Spinning,
Dancing,
Frolicking
...

To wake each day, faced with perpetual sunshine
disguised as your smile
is somewhat appealing
and even doctor recommended.
