I Wonder What You Are Doing Today Poem by Anita Atina

I wonder what you are doing today

Did you walk in the sunshine, and think of me

Or feel my touch when you looked in the mirror


Was there a moment when you wished you weren’t so far away

That we were looking into each others eyes

My hands hungrily caressing yours


Drinking in our warm conversation

Your laugh, that faraway look, makes me smile

And think of the next crazy thing to make you laugh again


The exquisite tenderness of your embrace

Astonishing absence of tension or distance

Opens up fluid pathways of sharing


Almost as if you’ve understood, before my words you hear

And we were waiting for this conversation to happen

I sense your desire before we embrace


Intimate yearning

To measured pace we move yet

Knowing this tango leads to a place where we want to be, together
