A vision (More than flesh and bones)

The rain falls all day today

Am laying naked on the couch

nested warm under the blanket

I long for your hand

Counting across the window 

Raindrops and our dreams that lost their way

Your fingers paint on the cold glass 

A heart and a secret sign

You kneel close and  kiss my hair

Your  warmth  like a desert wind over my skin

your touch a blessing

fireflies in my eyes

You smell like the rain outside

naked and true and wonderful

I lose my breath feeling you

I need your comfort as you need mine

God loves us both, you whisper

You join me, curling around my wounded soul with your pain

Like an ancient plant

You cover me with your longing

We are both outcasts

We are licking our wounds

Two lonely souls in this crazy cruel world

And thus we stay

Still

Loving each other quietly

Loving each other deeply

Minutes run to hours

The night covers us with shadows

You breathe on my shoulder

The rain always drips singing us to sleep

Profoundly mortal and free  in our nakedness we lay

You and me

And the falling rain
