She’s cold
Cuddling for warmth
By herself,
I ache to be there
Wrap her in my arms
Safe and warm
(And snore-free, in my mind)
She can sleep peacefully through
The night

Atoms

Is matter
What matters?

or

Is what matters
More than matter?

-04.06.20_18:22-

The need
For her controlling
Hand,
Tugging and pulling
My hair,
A needy itch
One only She can relieve,
An ache in my groin, head,
And heart.

Her fingers feel
Different

A “StayHomeStaySafe Connecting = Anti-Social Distancing” Limerick

The pandemic has changed so many aspects of what was our “everyday lives.” One of the most dramatically affected things has been our relationships.

Leaning over the bed,

I can feel you close

-16.02.20_12:44-

It’s a choice I think about

As it calls to me

-28.12.19_16:25-

The doorway in,
Staring back,

-14.12.19_04:17-

My fingers run over

Rough, sandpaper skin,

-09.10.19_01:15-

I don’t want to sleep,
Since that means

-27.09.19_01:15-

I can see her lying there,
Just beyond my reach

-18.09.19_02:58-

She looks at me
With Love in her eye

-08.09.19_14:38-

 

A choice that I made

It was supposed to be until the end

The one and

Only,

Again.

Abandoned amidst predictions

Now true,

Watching as life goes on for others

But not for me.

Sitting in our small living room,

The first place I ever lived

-02.09.19_12:33-

My circle is small,

He was the second I ever let in

-01.09.19_00:57-

 

I’ve stumbled and shared tribulations,

I’ve changed and grown

-08.30.19_22:39-

She was the first

I gave my heart and my soul.

-11.08.19_23:41-

A common item,
A treasure kept,

-10.08.19_02:09-

Eyelids droop,
Fluttering open

-17.07.19_00:23-

04.07.19_12:13

Falsehoods I tell myself,
Using props

-26.06.19_00:31-

The days,
Wearying, plodding exercise,

-21.04.19_10:46-

Hand drawn creations

-17.04.19_01:21-

You help me to speak
To myself,

-09.04.19_02:03-

I whisper to her
Alone in the dark spaces

-22.02.19_12:31-

Hanging out with friends,

-06.01.19_15:30-

Hand in hand
Walking under the cold night skies,

-25.12.18_14:43-

Family obligations met,

Call or visit,
