I waited all day
For you to come down/chin up
To my level of consciousness
To inhale that faultless moment
Preceding your disappearance
Between two mountain/tops
Topped off with a green flash
Between knee-cap pinnacles
Exhaled over the horizon line
When you go down I come up
I come up from my day
I come up from experience
From experience, I know you
I know you will return
You will return always tomorrow
But you won’t always ad(dress) me
(Un)dress me
The day after
The day after the night she rules
She rules your tides and mine
But it doesn’t matter
What matters is
I venerate you then/now
The way your light penetrates
My flesh before we dive
Into the darkness
In the day we take postures
We take postures over the one
One passing
One staying with the other
In time to come when she leaves again in the morning
In the morning turning
My back on the direction you left me
You left me this last night
A gift in the dark spaces we inhabited only briefly/eternally
So dark I could not see
I could not see the gift you couldn’t give to me
Give to me the revelation
The revelation the decision
Not to see
Not to see you anymore
To replace the seeing with a knowing
To forgo touch, taste, time and
It’s been a pleasure, a pleasure to know you
To know you will be there always tomorrow
Always tomorrow/when you come up
I go down
Nice workon this one, was AMAZING with the audio.
Terrific even better with audio
SD! Thank you for stopping by, subscribing and supporting my rants with a click and a comment. It means so much to me.
The more I read, the better I like the style. To be able to also hear, as poetry is intended, is a sweet bonus.
I’m so glad you like it, Frodo. The best part is, I’m in LOVE with all of these poems. To be honest, I don’t think I really had a “style” before this. Now it really seems to be coming together and feels like it just keeps getting better than I thought possible. XO!
Good to see you stopped by, HS. 😉
Your poetry is AWESOME. A treat for my soul. Are you being published? Mary
Thank you, Mary! You’re comments are treats for MY soul. <3. I would LOVE to be published.
