~within me .. without you

Softly hold me within you

without those trappings around us

realities are dust I blow off your finger

We create rainbows of light and soft kisses

where wounds were, softening the scar tissue and I belong

only with you

you within me, me without you

eclipsing nights and days

I trace my finger over your picture

keeping it beneath my pillow where we meet in dreams

those fantasies we create to step into for respite

clothing ourselves in these moments

in one another’s armes

within me, and me without you

dreaming as you sleep

day dreams in your night

…. soft fragrance of magnolia and jasmine

wafts across the oceans between

as the pull of moon…

like the tides it rules pulls me from your arms

a reverie exquisite

You become a voice and pictures

less real than our liquid dreams
