Emily<\/h1>\n

by Cassandra Langer<\/p>\n

So shall I rain down kisses
\nUpon you tracing the sweet cascading
\nLine of your throat’s curving
\nWater flowing towards all the
\nYet to be discovered places
\nMy mind travels looking at you
\nEyes sliding away from imagining
\nThrough the half shadows
\nFrom which you are emerging<\/p>\n

The old fear shoots
\nTo the surface
\nMy face barely covers it
\nI cast down my eyes
\nFolding them tight
\nOver vibrating vulnerabilities
\nThat threaten to shatter the bland fa’ade
\nMy pulse races, my heart thunders
\nAs I shift into passionate explorations
\nRaising the stakes
\nAlways the gambler.<\/p>\n
