I Bend Poem by Renee Lewis

You touch my silence
A shadow that flutters
From behind you
A quiet energy
Attatched to your lines

Easily ingesting
Never questioning
Tentative steps
Turning a corner
Colliding with melodic lines
You've put forth from your mind

You're showered down
And steeped in them
Immersed
And that's when

My head spins
In time to your easy words
Breathes
In time to your love surge
Takes the time
To internalize
Endears me all over again
I bend
