It's moonlight
whole and round
a beacon in the starless sky

It's the feel of the skirt
against my legs as I whirl
spinning in the rain

It's the taste of wine
on my lips
ruby sangria sweet
coursing through my blood

It is everything and nothing
emptiness
alive

It is the way that I love you
complete

Alone.

"These poems, they are things that I do
in the dark, reaching for you...whoever you are
and are you ready?"
