Gone For a Walk

How long
have I been awake?

How shines the sun
on me
without you?

I had forgotten what
love is.

I feel now,
like I once did,
what it is
to love you
completely.

Our love is not
a light;
shadows remain within
my heart,
but its earth is
devoted to
the soles of
your feet.

I wash in
your scent.
I breathe in
your chest.

I walk now
through dusky hills,
carrying your voice
on my lips.

How much mess could Tess confess if Tess obsessed to impress? My guests are blessed with the stress of their guess... but I digress.
