Spit mixed with dirt – Muddy words flow
Untitled Poem
that early morning sigh
sun still beneath the horizon
I slip on your skin
like a robe woven in love
intoxicated by the scent of you
but completely sober
awake to reality, it’s you
the finisher of my now
the weight of your hand on my hip
before you draw me closer
the most natural movement
together we exhale deeply
mostly asleep
at peace, finally at peace
safe, protected
whole
this completeness covers me
excites me, I crave you
even as you plunge in
plumbing my depths
diving to an ultimate finish
I bloom, then fade into peace
the morning sky shifts
grey becoming nearly blue
I turn and wrap myself around you
it’s your turn to wear my skin
murmuring I love you
as we drift down the river together
