Angel

In a state of half a dream and half awake I await tantra trinkets shine in pieces across night skies scattered stars the litter of our synchronized wishes broken symbols of our disenchanted rune cosmic poets cursed the lutestring verse rhymed for us I’m lost astray a pearl loosed from a fractured string lost in ashes of embers our fire that fed the sun will you search a cosmos of starving stars their shimmer growing dimmer til light withers will you search a famished universe to find me a spec of earthly widow dust settled stilled sweet Venus intercede before dark recedes listen a nightingale’s sonnet song rides the air melody’s flame melts ice-blonde moonbeams a buttery pool the singer’s smitten spotlight his rhapsody brims his beloved to swoon oh Venus let lyric desire be my angel’s glide path in a state of half a dream and half awake sensual my soulmate an invite for my griever skin to tingle to thaw touch me warm my angel touch me warm billow tender breeze through window’s yawn pale cheeks brushed lips shushed a lover’s rush light as a scarf’s silk slide I tremble like a cello string soft breaths move the curtains and swell my sighs wind spirit purrs my name I close my eyes your ethereal presence your physical absence how poetic this dual ache throbbing the same space inside a pearl weary and weeping for you
