Thoughts while we lean against the wall.

Meanwhile, I am stuck loving you
From a distance
Where interaction is clandestine.
Neatly trimmed to hide the seams.
And any loose details, I prefer left unseen.
But it’s all I can do:
Love you insidiously, insatiably-
From all directions &from nowhere
Without rhyme or reason,
But with a steady Pressure
That cannot be ignored-
To love you desperately,
Carnally, Biblically.
In hidden thoughts,
& deprived musings.
To dote on you like a possession
I seek to master yet fear to hold.
Need to hold, a sighhhh of relief,
Brought to my lips-by your kiss.
A kiss I deem too genuine to indulge
Too authentic to partake.

But my eager arms anticipate your embrace.
A lonely mother, waiting for the war to be over
