(mostly) short poems on life and love

an untamed “i”

October 18, 2022 by Michael Guerin

at home in the dark
i am bated breath
and base desire,
or the haunting notes
of an unsung aria
echoing into night
as holy fire.

i am that which is wounded
yet forever burns
in the magic
of unspoken words
(felt as the barest whisper
from my touch) —

a whirling rush
of shadow
and light which dances
beyond ecstasy
or shame,
always new
and eternally untamed.
