Intensity

Intensity

A Chapter by Dr. YumnaKay

Experimental writing...

Intensity

Indistinct murmurs 
followed by your 
deep breaths. 

Each pause 
in your speech 
makes me hold my breath

as 

I wait for your next words, 
bewitched; your tone enchants
and entices me. 

this infinite distance 
between you and me
finally overcomes; 

the laughter in your voice ~ 

intensifies...

I like the mystical feel to this piece. You're a great poet and you exercise a great use of words to paint images that invoke the feeling of intensity and mystery.
I've always liked poetry, but never felt I was any good at it. Poetry takes a whole other type of skill, and I really respect the art.
Good job here. =)

Aloha Yumna, this certainly felt ethereal, with a hint of intrigue and I would even say seduction. It does build nicely and then it's done... but not quite done I suspect. Lovely read. Izzy

Yumna, I so admire your need to experiment with writing, truly do. One learns both comfort and discomfort when wearing different coats.. and when folk admire or not, one learns yet more. That willingness of yours to 'take it on the chin' is wonderful.
Read your poem, then typed the above.. now read a second time, aloud. Firstly your slightly elongated display slides into Space and Time.. good. Your words, slow, increase, slow.. saying more each time.. more than fine. The intensity is so clearly shared, the need for the other is clearly shared.. and yet tis.. not.. quite.. complete. Your secret, perhaps.. or sadly omitted.

Brava, miss Yumna!

Thank you for this thoughtful review over my writing, Emma. I'm glad you liked it. 😊
i remember a woman from Poland i was dating...i would hang on every word...she had such a great accent and was so interesting...i would just keep asking her questions so that she would talk to me.

and the feelings intensified the more i listened to her voice.

Yes, that does seem like how it is..
Thank you for sharing your thoughts here, Jacob.
I enjoy your observations of "intensity" . . . a feeling that some seek & others avoid. I'm reading this as a major contrast of ideas . . . on one hand, two people drawing closer & more connected, yet also described as "this infinite distance overcomes" (which seems to indicate LESS closeness)!?!?! I'm not sure what to make of this contrast, tho. I wonder if the "infinite distance" stanza might be stated as "is finally overcome" (which is the opposite meaning as what you've written here).

I'm similarly torn about this . . . it could go either way & still be interesting!
