Layered Fragments, Becoming Whole

In a dream
The indigo sky
fills my eyes with stars
As tears blur the constellations
into moonbeams
Holding in A sharp
the light of bright
Venus
A specific chill in the night air
sends vibrations
Touching skin
gooseflesh turned silver fish
shimmer
down the length of my body
partially covered in a wool blanket
My hand holds a lapel
I feel your shape
Warming
me
Your arms wrapped around my waist
As my body sighs
and sinks
Sinking into you
Deep

Finally

breathing deeply
Filling my core with
d e e p e s t
oxygen
That I can only get
here
with you
