Love Poem: Released

Written by: Rachel Hart

Released

tongue dance
the fancy lick
of sin
my need reaches
out from within
chokes on skin
lies between
broken skies
the capacity to
care denies the
menacing glare
of a past
cast aside
incentive compels
the tide further
washing away 
disaster
i clamour 
to you in a sudden
burst of motion
& stammer
overcome by emotion-
gracious for my defeat
breathless with relief
we dance
to the beat of 
a heart-
released.
