It’s your breath
That gives shape
To the love lining
My falling tear drops
——-
Silence pours
Out of my palms
An offering of peace
To my distant goddess
——
You spoke and went
Leaving me there
To sift through the sands
For your vented words
——
Two full stops
And yet
My heart beats
The familiar rhythm
——-
Your mouth
Wraps around my words
Rolling them around
Like fresh green grapes
——–
I thought I felt
You yesterday
In a thought that
Kissed my lonely lips
——-
I woke up
And thought of you
Sitting in a chair
Covered by
My blanket of love
——–
It is evening
And I await
Your call-
My evening star
