A lover from the past is remembered with the decision to try and reconnect.

From the gut, my broken spirit cries out.

Yielding a cumbersome pain with referred doubt.

Cleaving to that which is known.

Safety to that which is prone.

Mine eyes seek your face,

to share in your grace.

I feel your will.

 I am caught up in over-spill.

I am lost in the memories

of the way we were.

How did this present malady occur?

I can’t forget the intimacy.

The feeling of being wild and free.

You knew just how to touch.

 With you, I have felt so much.

Just a look

was all it took,

for me to feel ecstasy.

You have been, and still are, my soul’s fantasy.

I miss the fire,

of your desire.

Flowing like sap from a tree.

Flowing through you into me.

Your lips singed my flesh

as they moved across my skin.

Painful, yet erotic, again and again.

I must find my way back to you,

before I die of starvation and thirst,

before the heat gets so intense

that I swell up and burst.

The time has now come

to bond together in perfect intimacy.

I need to fill this overdue vacancy,

and put up the sign,

 bright in lights.

 Revealing, no occupancy.

    WOW! How Sad.

    DB…this is a profound yearning for what was. What are the chances that the hands of time can be wound back to recapture the eroctic ecstacy that you once enjoyed. Even if the past can be resurrected, chances are the flames of passionate love will not burn as they did before. A painful read, but thanks anyway.
