Your face fills my heart as I wake each morn Before these eyes open or thoughts are born There is you, there is want. But a cold bed Stretches at my side - you're just in my head Your hands give me shivers, as in the shower I turn to hold you, anxious to devour The pleasures I know you offer to me But I’m alone and my life is empty. Your arms coax me away from kitchen sink With warm breath on my neck I cannot think You star in my dreams, give song to my soul You mold me, complete me - you make me whole I’d sell my soul for the taste of your kiss You feel so real, how can you not exist? |

Somehow, after seeing your picture, I can't imagine you being alone unless you want to be. |

yeah, this is exactly the kind of thing I just wrote about in my poem Cat Nap, and I hadn't even read this yet. This feeling must be contagious right now, something in the air, like a Cold Moon |
