When I climb in bed and I close my eyes at night
and darkness is spinning towards the closing door
clouds and colored lights rapidly appear;
face to face I see you again, as before.
Suddenly my heart begins to race out of control
as if bearing the beats is too much to hold;
then I press forward in anticipation
of the timeliness of your touch.
I can feel your eyes as they trace
and linger upon my body, reaching for my soul;
No shame am I facing
as I give myself to you wholeheartedly.
But as I open my eyes to look closely upon your face to see,
the naked truthful world floods in on me,
and I begin to wonder how it could be true
that you continue to be a force in my fantasy.(2019)
