Betrayal

Memories
Of your mouth
Muddle my mind
They roam
South
With disdain
The fabric strains
Little signs I hide
From prying eyes

My fingers roam
The seat I'm on
The hard plastic
Is now your skin
Your tongue flickers
And skims within
Crevices hidden
By my clothes
My memories of you
Coming alive
Every moment
Of the morning after
As my face holds
Absolutely still

Or, at least,
I hope it does...

Avalanche

An avalanche of loves
Descends upon me
It catches me unawares
They catch me unprepared
And tear me into pieces
Of sudden longing

Caught up in the storm
I'm divided
As my eyes reach out, sightless,
For your lips,
My arms, questing for your fingers,
Have left my mind behind
Which hears only your name
Roaring relentlessly through
The destruction
Each bit of me, separate,
Is caught up in a panic;
Yearning for rescue
By a different part of you

But the avalanche is you
Removed from my world

Your absence is my maelstrom
I go to pieces without you.

Stars

Can you hear the stars
As they wind on slowly by
They twinkle softly overhead
I hear them through your sighs
