Faintless Phantom


I can hear you
Your voice,
a drone of sensations yearning.

I can feel it in my loins
A touch remised.
Too hard to forget.

This ache saturates me
A poison,
never-ending melancholy.

When you look at her, do you see me?
The sun shines upon a face so angelic
A soft, dimpled smile of reprises

The melodies of bird singing.
Sometimes I follow along, too.
A hint of glee in her eyes

Oh, sweet baby
How I adore you.
There can never be enough kisses

My body sinks
Lower until the earth buries it
Can you reach me if the sun hunkers behind the trees?

Clarity


Waking to the gentle grimace of the daylight star.

It glistens through the curtain like a gentle fairy that listens.

A welcomed hiss from lungs that served their purpose.

The sound of a lover’s snore fills ears with a shivered kiss.

She stretches her arms to the sky, only to lean over to embrace a restless backside.

Wandering eyes once blinded by sleeping beauty’s lips.

Chastened with a soft kiss by words uttered in mere octaves.
