flashback

I lie awake
Consumed
By the memory
Of your smile
For a while
My body throbs
And resonates
To that low growl
In your throat
When I heard you gloat
That night you had me pinned
How we laughed as we sinned
And how you called my name
Softly
In your sleep
As I lay awake
Listening to your heart beat

I lie alone
Thinking of the tears
It's been years
Since they intermingled
And we cried
Trying to dry
Each others fears
As we ripped apart
Our very own selves
The fragile world we'd built
From the fabric of our hearts

I lie awake often
And think of you
I wonder if you do too...
