It came slowly, a tiny sprig

poking out of the earth,

seeking the sun, kissing the rain.

Nurtured by a starving heart.

It spread its limbs around me,

caressing me. Leaves sprouted

brushing my lips tickling my tongue,

promising endless tomorrows....

Too bad it was hemlock.

He held his old dress shirt to his face and inhaled.

Is that her perfume still lingering after all this time?

He touched his neck lightly and felt her soft, gentle lips

on his skin, her warm breath on his chest.

Adrift in the
sea of your
bottomles
eyes...

Floating….
in your long,
gentle curves

Aching...
for your
warm, wet

Drowning...
in an
endless
dream of
you....

I am
gone.
