Anger
Washes through me
Coals on the inside of my skin
Waiting on the russet snow
Waiting until I see him

I raise my gaze and spot him
Clean-cut today I see
Blue shirt and
Loose jeans,
Shoes of leather burgundy .

You greet me with
"Hello Love,"
But I cannot bear to listen
You hold me tight and whisper in my ear
"What if I go like this then.."

Swept off my feet ,
Into your arms
Bodies melding ease
But as soon as I can , I find my lips to your neck
And it is my turn to tease
