The Melding

Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)



We make love tattoos
across space and time

Between, our two hearts,
together as we lay

Make love and play
with each other’s parts

Look into each other’s eyes
and realize

After tonight,
 we very well may never part

Our bodies primed,
we synchronize our oceans

Move our mountains,
phase our moons

Adjust our tides
just right

As we melt into each other’s
light and dark

Till we reach past our peaks  

Climaxing in ways
beyond emotions

Freefalling,
as we catch ourselves…  

mirror souls in echo emotion

While locomotive breathing

See sawing back and forth
wild and freely running
as we ebb and rise

laughing wildly...
on this tidal wave, we ride

While gazing intently
with fevered passion  

Locked into each other’s eyes

Holding tight to one another
as if for dear life

Our kisses hot,
now bodies steaming

Seems like it’s never ending
We must be dreaming

With sweet ecstasy
we arc and spark

Fusing hearts
and melding minds
