I have no want at all to own you,
to steal a raven from the air,
coil heavy rope
around a whisp of smoke,
and place a veil before the waxing moon.
My one desire is to simply live
naked on the very same Earth,
my face cast skyward
to drink the rain
that was once your breath among the clouds.
I will never find the word
my only fond rememberance
for the alchemy that was our neon nights,
in a thunder of silk,
tasting every inch of you
warm, wet, and wanting.
Now your phantom face is an analog vision
nightly I die to your dark silhouette.
I'll see you again,
and when I do,
I'll remember
why we live
at
all.
