To add important context. This was written during a month long stay in hospital with pneumonia.

 

Dreams and desires,

Hopes and needs,

Schemes and plans... 

They all come together in an instant,

Showing serendipity's sweet superiority,

Over detail and scheduling... 

After over a week,

Of time teasing twists,

Of waiting, wanting, longing...

Of superficial wet rubs,

Of teasing desire,

Of almost enough... 

It finally happened,

Reality met with fantasy long unfulfilled,

And true release was achieved... 

Not wet rub approximation,

Not superficial simulation,

But reality's actualization... 

The magic moment is now past,

But the echoes remain,

Like a perfume's lingering scent... 

They let me shower,

After over a week,

I am clean.
