Only
For an instant…;

A grain
Of sand
… Falls.

Our eyes,
Meet;

A grain
Of sand
… Falls.

This heart,
Loses…
A beat;

Another,
Grain
… Falls.

Time…
Stands,
Still;

Again…
Grains fall.

Since,…

Grains of sand
Fill…
This desert.

The passion;
A rose;
Like… sweet taste of wine.

The moment;
A single touch;
A resurrection;
… mine.

The sensation;
Like a color…
A Tingling,...
Cool shade of blue.

The feelings;
My heart.
A memory;
… of you.
Theresa M Rose Jun 2014
A heart; Exspose; Drowns.

Reaching above
Sinks...

Doing nothing...
Deadman; No float.

A heart must learn... to tread.

Doggy paddle.

Ethereal;
Is such…
A singular
Touch.

Permeating
Beyond
All…
Boundaries.

Of Time
Of space…
no memories...
Erase.

Just a tether
Beyond...

The consumed;

Standing…
Where once
was you.

I gaze out…
Watching…
Waves
… gently roll.

I dream.

Sounds
… of the sea.

Feeling of sand.

I close my eyes
And…,
Again
Here you stand.

A touch
… on my hand
Takes me;

In a moment
Just a moment
I am free.
Free, to go
… to long ago
When…
It was you…
Who was wanting me.

Laughing lovers;
Dawning sun;
Gentle spray
… from the sea.

Suddenly,
Words...
“ I love you”

A moment of joy
Turns…
To tragedy.
Theresa M Rose Jun 2014
I hear
His heart
Beating.

Here…
Across the room.

Twinkling lights;
The Yule log;

Parcels…
Shimmer
Beneath the tree…

I can feel… his smile
No-one else
… in view.

He…. recognizes
A need
… in me.

Oh, am I a fool;

Everyone
Sleeps
… now.

Christmas…
Christmas,
Soon will dawn;

He looks at me
I am
… his little present

What… we do
… is wrong.

He sees…
How… I want him.

He holds me…
And, tells me…
Go away

He grabs me tight
He takes me
To him…

I am merely play.

Runaway, runaway,
Runaway home.

Alone in a crowd;
No place to be alone.

So far… from familiar;
The familiar is never here.

The familiar is a dream
A nightmare… I fear.

Alone… in the darkness.
Alone… in a crowd.

Heart’s forever screaming
The silence is… too loud.
Motions and smiles
People strolling …along the bay.
They walk all around me
But, I hear not… a word they say.

Runaway, runaway,
no place… but alone.

Alone in a crowd.

Alone;
And… on my own.
