Between Us Is This Mystery Poem by RIC BASTASA

when our two bodies fuse
giving off
so much energy that we
can ever imagine

in the spark of my mind
when i close my eyes
lies this chasm

i fall in there
and till date
even as i open my eyes
and leave you with my fingers
i still feel no bottom

i am a leaf with nowhere
to land
there is no surface of the water
there is no sand
at the bottom

the bubbles keep mesmerizing
the mind lost in
ecstasy unimagined before
the first touch
of your nipple to my
upper lip.
