Go Back

Let’s go back,
Way back
To when we were first lovers,
Ease into my lips,
And find them parted for you,
Kiss them slowly as if this might be the last,
Kiss,
And kiss,
Take my breath,
And promise to never give it back,
Want more,
As I do,
And find it deep inside
Me,
Waiting
Desperately
for you.

Tall Grass

My dream that never came
Was always us in tall grass,
Finding self and each other
By the river,
Under stars, “cowboy take me away”
And making everything alright,
For you, for me,
And one last kiss
that is never enough,
I’m intoxicated still by orange-blossom memory,
What is now a web-like fantasy,
Where I can’t tell where you end and I begin,
Or what was real or what I just
Imagined,
But where it left off,
That in my mind I fill in:
We go out walking,
After midnight
And catch falling stars
And find each other’s ends,
In the tall grass
