Days and
Crying wind.
Those gorgeous nights
Filled with
Dying breath,
And you.
Mothers with worry on their minds.
The sweet mist of your kisses
Always just above life.
Some light from the moon
To illuminate our fears, hopes, dreams.
Light from the moon to reveal our
Fates,
Intertwined
In and out like vines.
As it rains franticly,
There is a raw love running in the air.
Feeling
Seeing
Hearing
Tasting
Smelling
Everything.
“Live,” you say.
And I will.
I am.
