Her soul lies hidden
crouching on her pelvic floor
making itself small and smaller
searching wide-eyed for Something.^tm

It hides
longing to be ignored
passed over
by tidal waves of emotion
raging through her mind.
Shivering in fear
ducking its head
as another shard of heart
comes crashing down.

It hides
all the while
aching to be spotted
its beauty discovered
as large clumsy hands
gently reach forward
cradling it tenderly
in a roughened palm
softly stroking
quaking flesh
as a warm dark voice
whispers gentle nothings
to coax the fear away.

Until that warm hand
slides across full rounded flesh
fingers tracing
the taut muscles
that hold her upright
as warm full lips
slide across her own
meeting her searching kiss

Until talented tongue
beckons 'come hither'.

For the kiss coaxes her soul
to reach up
from its hiding place
extending willing arms
around a ruddy neck
fingers wandering lost
along the ridge
until her soul
skips gaily away
dragging a ravaged heart behind.
