spirits

ephemeral connection

those nights,

when our breaths combined

could drown the crashing waves,

the light in your eyes illuminated

the darkness in mine.

our bodies lurched with space

as they yearn for sensuality;

the warmth of another's skin,
the comfort of an extra presence

but daylight, that damn invader,

(though with the best of hearts)

brought with it an earthquake

that shook us to our senses:

heat for the alcohol,

lucidity for our eyes

and pain as a punishment.

well it worked,

i saw her no more.

still, funny how my heart aches

for a stranger i've only known for three nights

and a day.
