Lonely Nights

Lonely Nights

A Poem by Ivory

It was late at night,

I couldn’t sleep,
Needing an instant gratifying release;
I closed my eyes and pictured you.
And all the things we use to do.
How you would reach for me,
While lying in bed;
Your fingers circling my thighs,
No words said.
Melting into the sheets,
Overwhelming heat;
Doesn’t take long for me to reach my peak;
Your body covers mine.
And inside me,
You come alive.
Stroking and holding me tight.
A beautiful way to end the night;
Suddenly I open my eyes…
 
Remembering, your not here,
My eyes swell with tears.
It was just one of many moments,
I know I must leave behind,
Comfort in my thoughts of you, I still find.
Recapture our love again, we might.
Do you think of me,
When you can’t sleep at night?

Very sad and completely understandable. It's like our bodies have their own memory and naturally crave the people we've been with. At least that's what I've experienced and feel when I read this piece.
