Unintended

Unintended

So often the simplest expression
     provokes the deepest thought.
Sometimes without intention
     love claims a place in our heart.

And as the rising of the tide,
     washes the sea upon the sand,
wiped away are tears cried
     by the touch of a gentle hand.

The most innocent of words
     will stoke flames of desire.
Sometimes a desolate heart
     is rekindled with raging fire.


Unintended, though his motives may be,
He passionately touches every part of me.
