The taste of your laugh

About to leave for a journey

Hanging all hopes

Reaching the final fall

I write to you on the evening cold sun

Pain gnawing my heart

Grabbing the dream of the dying light

I hold to that delicious shadow of you

Sipping your tea, brushing your hair

Sending a kiss..

Dip a finger in your cream

Approach the edges of your land

Shackle myself with the eyes, lips..

Surrender to dread and despair

I taste your laugh

Swallow the sweetness dripping from the giggles

You call me silly names

You laugh once again.. last again

I stand alone facing myself in the dark
