TO TOUCH THE FORBIDDEN

TO TOUCH THE FORBIDDEN

A QUIET STORM SEIZED MY HEART
THE DAY I LOOKED AT YOU 
THOUGH SLOW THE PACE 
OF YOUR WARM EMBRACE 
FROM THAT MOMENT,
MY SOUL FELL FROM GRACE.

CASTING ASIDE THE SPIRIT’S GUIDE
WITH A STONE-FACE, 
I TIPPED TOED ON LIVE-WIRE.

DELIBERATELY OMITTING 
YOUR COMMITMENT TO ANOTHER 
WITH LUSTFUL STUBBORN DESIRES 
I WALKED INTO THE RAGING FIRE.

WILFORD BARKER.

Hi Marion.
I have been extremely busy on my job lately lol.
Which is why I haven’t been responding to comments.
when I get an opportunity to relax at home, I read what’s on the pages of Cosmofunnel 
and if a response is needed for whatever I’ve shared, I show my gratitude.
Thank you so much and keep expressing yourself in poetry.
