Falsetto

Night was dead asleep

When-

Unnoticebly-

In grave silence our bodies

entwined.

Yes in deep silence

you let me burrow in your arms

and breasts.

that nyte was different 

that nyte-yes

that nyte an oyster opened a pearl

 that nyte i found meaning

that nyte-you birthed me

again.

This is actually quite a deep poem and it really is open to interpretation but my interpretation leads me to think that, that moment between man and woman that is pure and precious like a pearl can be equated to a rebirth in person. Or maybe I am over thinking it??? LOL

Reason why I thought of rebirth is that there is the story of men who after abstaining from sex for awhile and then have sex it is like being reborn.

yeah, i felt that 2 Kin'shar,
and u have a point there K...

They say reaching an orgasm is quite a revitalising experience, perhaps thats what marks the transition from death to rebirth in this peice...

theres a sense of intensity in it as well...perhaps its the silence, the repetition of 'that nyte'...

its very clear it was a special night to you.

Princess said…
That right there is pretty intense!

*but why the title, 'falsetto'?
Robyn.K.Y said…
@Princess webster defines Falsetto as "an unnaturally or artificially high-pitched voice or register, esp. in a man." must i say more
Princess said…
Yes, now it makes sense. LOL! :D

I thought I got it til I got to the rebirth part. . .
There I was feeling all sensual then I was like huh.

After reading all the comments especially K I think I get it.

And I knew the title (at least when I first saw it) meant high singing. . .oh oh oh (sing it high).

So I think I get it.

dag this is a long comment. I just rambled.

my goodnessss boy! you should tell derik to read this, he may identify with this totally...as intense as linda said it be! wow
Ahem!wait a minute, might have to take off my jacket it's a bit hot in here!

but that line...

"you let me burrow in your arms and breasts"

...for me, doesn't quite fit the rest of it. It sort of threw me for a bit.

But I love it though just like everything you write.
