Seafoam Poem by Tsani Jones

If I had a kiss
For every time
I hungrily gazed at your lips
Time would never end.

If I had a teardrop
For every longing gaze,
The oceans would overflow
And become one.

If I dreamed you in
My embrace, and that
Dream became reality-
Could a soul contain it all?

Instead I kiss the air,
And cuddle where you should be,
A tired leg clasped between your
Silky thighs so painfully absent...

And when day breaks
All I have is a vision of
Two burning lovers,
Yet it fills the canvas left by the night sky.
