Sleepy eyes blink slower
The lower I sink
Below layers
Of silk
As whirling ceiling fans
Twirl
Circular cool air
Chill my head
In the center
Of our bed
I whisper prayers
Silent cares
Yawn an amen
And sigh your name
Again and again
Until I fade
Away
In deserts dry
I dream and drift
In the fracture
Of another day missed
Without your lips
Moist kiss
Lazer-like
Dawn rays
Trace
Once more
Your cool pillow
Without your face
In sight
Maybe tonight
Whispers
Maybe
Tonight

Very intense.. God bless..
Hope she returns soon.
Penned beautifully.
Once again I am entranced by your words.
It's beautiful!
The thoughts of yearning of her...I could even feel the intense feeling, that longing! Great rendition here!

I love how you convey so much with so few words and your form is interesting, too. I am new to poetry so am intrigued by your work. I have much to learn, I see. Hugs, pat
lovely
Oh, can feel that longing deeply! Lovely piece.
