3:42 a.m

Friday black morning
awake
alone
battling the demons

Crouched on the slick saltillo tile
of my patio
silver-black storm clouds
roll furiously by

Pink silk nothing
Fluttering against my
bare thighs

Cool January rain
peppers my bare arms
and
my burning soul:
I hunger for you

Longing again for
Frigid ash-grey Pacific waves
and damp yellow sand
to chill my bare feet
until my bones ache

Far
far from my
wasted
desolate
desert town

No rest for the weary
(nor the lonely)
Not tonight

Miss that double-beat
your heart
pressed to mine
strong solid arms
encircling me

Safe harbor there
at too-long last

Soft hot whispers
love like honey
dripped into my ear
I hear your
Smile

Feel your
Heat

Your heart

Crave you like candy
or a drug

4:01 a.m. here
black storm fading
into copper desert dawn

The symmetry of grey clouds and water beside a wasted desert town-- I identify with this so much. Lovely poem! please keep them coming!

Distance, when hearts should be beating against each other through ephemeral skin.
