In My Mind Poem by Dana Korneisel

I can practically see you lying there
I can practically feel your voice weave round a name
The way your chest is moving
as you breath in deep
I can practically feel that pressure
Pressing against me.

But you're far away
& that was a long time ago.

It's like I can taste the touch of your lips
It's like I can see that look in your eyes
Intensity shining
the desire in your touch
It's like I can feel your hands
pressed to my back

But you're far away
that was a long time ago,

I want to be the warm skin under your hands
I want to be the taste on your lips
The name you say passionate -

I want to feelheartaste your breath
mix with mine.

But you're far away,
that was a long time ago,
& I wasn't there.
