sky and fogA Poem by honeyleensthis hunger that is buried under our skin quietly unsaturated, under nourishedthe twilight shatters around our bodies as we lay together, breathing softly this hunger that is buried under our skin quietly unsaturated, under nourished we stay an inch apart, avoiding lush sin but waiting for the break, the end of tension. we look and do not touch, awareness taut like a pulled wire, sizzling like sun drenched skin, and we are so eager. eager, eager, as we drink in these meager touches -- brushes of skin, breath against lips lush enough to kiss, hands walking across slender hips. we are here, but inches apart. holding close, but heart like the melody of a skylark, song bursting mid flight, this burdened anxious feeling bubbles over as air rushes past wings of youthful attraction; touch feeling like gold feels to Midas, warmth to the ice, we melt together, curled around each other like sky and fog.
