Summer's Warmth (is still here)

Its only been weeks;
but it has felt like months
years -
eternity...


a physical barrier
between our bodies

emotionally lost
in the haze created
by endless miles

that have been shoving us apart


unconventionally
placed in the smoldering heat
of a dying summer

many things said -
unreasonable insult

dying with the cool air
of the night's smooth decent

nothing has left our minds



but the friction -

of the sunrise
that will always be there.

The next day.




But still,

as we meet – your strong arms
ropes bound around strong muscle
veins popping beneath your skin
pull me to you -

not any less so
as you once did
when we first separated.

Author notes

Well... This isn't much..

I was just thinking about summer, and going on vacation..

Whatever

In a list

Be honest here.

    This is great! I can sense your longing and also brings up emotions within me. I love the lines "dying with the cool air
    of the night's smooth decent" This line turns the poem around and leaves the reader with a feeling of optimism as the heat of the day dies down. Wonderful.

    I like the sense of the day's errors dropping away that this creates, even as the tension promises they'll return - there is this reprieve.
