I want to breathe
your fragrance in my dreams
and embrace the twilight
that glimmers in your eyes
I want to become snowflakes
falling ... falling
melting into the hollows of your body
Your far flung music
haunts my sleep
like waves arising
from a tumultuous sea
But you are beyond my touch
like the vast overarching sky
or a rainbow, whose colors
fade into dusk
I can recall your softness,
and those quiet mornings
when we felt our oneness
Where have you gone?
Are you alone now?
Do you still feel
my hands reaching for you
in the stillness of night?
