The chill danced
Playfully through the air, gaily
Enticing
Our bodies closer
Flames surged
Igniting my veins; lips
Coated in sparks.
A few lonely stars stare down
At us.  Alone.
I can feel the world turn
And the back of your neck
Is perfect in my hands.
Suddenly
I know I am close to finding.
Slate eyes whisper back
Wandering.
I know you aren’t there.
I just wish
Want you to know.
