Comments about Erika Wingo
Missing You
I am thinking of you
Thoughts of you swirl throughout
The recesses of my mind
Bitter-sweetened torture
Can you feel me touching you
Even still, even now
Even as miles separate us?
I am dreaming of you
Of melting into your arms
Absorbing your body's heat
My ear against your heart
Listening to you breathe
I am wishing for you
At this very moment
I imagine my hands
Tracing over the curves of
Of your face
The soft smoothness of your lips
With an aching heart
Remembering things too precious
To be forgotten
Wondering if ...
The Moments After
In the moments after you had gone
It seemed as though time had
Gathered together
To stand beside me,
Perfectly still
Waiting expectantly for me
To cry or scream
To speak or just to breathe
My first breath alone
Your poem The Moments After Is a rich and refreshing river is revitalization and therapy. Keep up the great works my dear poetic friend!
