Thanks, BJ! I hope you have not read this already...

SOULS

Two lonely spirits
seeking refuge in the diaphanous
comfort of dreams
as the waves of desires
fight the moorings from past
Our physical existence
melts away
In the shadow of darkness
As we drift gently
A slender touch
a shy but lingering kiss
unfulfilled passions of bodies
carried into our souls
Thirsty desires
haunting our present existence
As we fight a losing battle
with time and distance
and chains of all kinds
that deny pleasure
Our bodies, tense and aroused
fighting to stay apart
yet dying to become one
Flowing images
through our tormented brains
trying oh so hard
to overcome reality
as it struggles to confine us
and to contain our passion
the battle goes on
When tired
at the end of the day
we slumber
and reality fades away
we reach out longingly
in a satisfying embrace
Surrounded by flowers
intoxicating perfumes
heavenly music in our ears
freed from carnal tensions
As we join
in a divine embrace
cool, comforting and eternal
for a moment of respite
from the cares of existence
and the forms of conformity
Rejuvenated, we hold each other in oneness
as our desires weave our auras
into one shimmering golden shell
safe in there
we consummate our fated union
Pleasure this is indeed
bound by love
that was denied
by distance and destiny
as we seek and enjoy
the few moments of nirvana
as only souls can
Before they return
to be bound and gagged
by time and distance again.

thats a very good piece of poetry.  I like the way you have weaved the images in around the hard facts and the reality.
