Let go

sometimes her arms ache 

with this need to hold 

fingers almost feeling the touch 

of his skin and hair 

as in playful teasing 

they form myriad patterns on him.. 

her lips tracing their path 

bursting into helpless smiles 

teeth nuzzling as her tongue soothes 

in cooling touches that ignite 

an unnamed fire within.. 

and she feels drunk on him and love driving her crazy 

suffusing her senses 

in sensual abandon 

an enhanced awareness 

a mindless oblivion.. 

and he walks away 

his voice giving up on him 

the familiar sounds fading 

the silence choking.. chiding 

clutching his senses.. 

and heart heavy with grief 

he tries to glimpse a bleak eternity.. 

and feels the flutter of her heartbeat shiver across his senses 

in mute assurance of her presence.. nothing could take away the breeze drying that wayward tear 

as if chiding that bellief 

of it not being there.. 

and he turns around 

and almost calls out.. 

feeling nothing except her inside.. 

hot tears scalding his skin 

he hears her touch 

in the cooling embrace of the breeze soothing him still.. 

Was he crushing them with such a terrible burden in his mind but choked all she could do was will with her eyes that looking back she could find 

just one chink of light and let go..
