the one
who will jolt awake
all the unwritten
the unsung
and the unlived
in me.

i am waiting
for him.

Tell me..how do you stand there?
filling the doorway....of my life.

With callused hands
i tasted
the softness of the moon

in the coldest winds
i discovered
my soul's
warmest fireplace

in the roughness
of his stubble
the tenderest love.

your gaze
across
my cheeks

turned them
into
strawberry fields.

tread carefully
into my life, my dear.

the currents
are strong.

you will get lost
in this
warm ocean
of my skin.

I had embraced you...
long before i hugged you.
