there is a blushing little girl inside me
spinning, leaping and pirouetting
dancing in the titillating rain of your love
I feel your affection in my bones
like an impending thunderstorm
butterflies swarm to swim your whirlwinds
as I melt into a playful puddle of concupiscence
I still feel your orb
A luminous wisper under my skin
On bad days
You are my sun
You're a gentle pulse that lingers long after your gone
You're eternal in my space
My silent star
Your orb remains
It's an everlasting mark
Embedded into my soul
I will feel you for an eternity
Sometimes distance becomes the gentle teacher of love
In the hush of absence
we begin to notice
the way a smile lingers like light on water
the warmth of a voice echoing in thought
the gestures once passed over now sacred
Love stretches in silence
It deepens
to the spaces between
