Together by Cassandra Solon-Parry A spark is shared between the eyes: Acknowledgement of the courage to look deeper; And a desire to see further into the intricate depths. Standing side by side: Some warmth is felt, half guessed, some glow of honesty; Assurance, the power to hold and protect. And between smiles something special is revealed: Smiles can be made without surface - The layers are all pulled down; There is some truth between us. And in the touch of hands: The promise of soothing, understanding, some guidance and some care. Between bodies the weight of passion is felt: Of self and ego, ambition and need for creation, And trust, submission, the desire to share And have no secrets - Everything laid bare. And in speech: Some respect, some knowledge, Some earnest belief in each other, one another, To join in love and reason, To give life more meaning, To try and be Together. |
