When you are with me
I can feel your touch
from across the room
I taste your kiss
lingering
on my bottom lip
the caress of it
hanging there
and tingling
You surround me
In your absence
the air
it rings
and hurts my ears
like a frequency is missing
something I have heard
for years
Undefineable
but oh-so real
Your greeting upon return
washes over me
and soothes
My body
that feels as though it had been
exposed to the harshest elements
I am consistently starved
for your existence
for your presence
for your cool and aloof affections
just... for you.
Your gentle snores
falling rapidly in my ear
syncing with my heartbeat
as it slows
To beat softer
and pull you through my body
absorbing thoroughly
the ways you make me feel
And again, when you are gone
I feel a void I never knew I had
When I cannot reach out
and run my fingers
down your spine
across your stomach
to pull you close
and feel you finally yield
in the safety
of OUR embrace.
