Lover - Spirit - Resistance Poem by Tsani Jones

I dream of you
When you're quiet.
You creep and slide next to me
Naked, perfect, strange.

My end of the rainbow
Is empty as you fade
Over the miles,
A ghost of hearts' illusion.

Your hair was just in
My hand a moment ago-
I felt you close, silk
Against me, cool and soft.

I awake, as you roll
Away from me, shining
That glow alone,
Breaking me in two.

I hear your tune,
The music of your
Breath sighing my name,
Drawing my spirit to you.

I have to taste you,
Taste life,
Touch the Divine...
Drag the stars in your eyes down to me

And make them my own.
