In silence I lie alone,
The lights are all out.
Gently I feel through the darkness,
with a need to touch hand to hand,
a desire to feel mouth on mouth.
The night wind moans its lonely sound,
then suddenly I'm awake, aware, afraid,
with only the cold darkness to be found.
Where is your soft hair, your sweet mouth?
These then are my thoughts of you,
In my sleep since you’ve been gone.
And though I lie here now,
Alone, awake and unwound
My love for you still
slumbers on.
