Off guard

Have you ever felt like this ? You quietly opened the book with a bit of sneaky disposition, carefully turning the pages tiptoed into his world, yet the author caught you off guard ? 

Was reading Cummings today and he breached  the boundaries with these beautiful verses.

Lady,

I will touch you with my mind.

Touch you and touch and touch

until you give me suddenly a smile,

shyly obscene

(lady I will touch you with my mind).

Touch you, that is all,

lightly and you utterly will

become with infinite care

the poem which I do not write.

— e.e. cummings.
