I desire you

Image

 
I desire you in every space,
where we once walked,
in the footsteps of the breeze,
where the sun has left us,
whispers of stolen kisses.

I desire you in every shadow,
where laughter still echoes,
in the echoes of an ‘I love you’
that the wind carries away and returns,
drawing dreams in the air,
in dances of love, in the full sheets.

I desire you in the twilight,
where bodies, ablaze,
arrived without haste and with fear,
to intertwine in the night,
bodies trembling with fire,
like stars falling in the calm.

I desire you in every corner,
in the calm of the afternoon,
where time stood still,
and the universe was complicit
in every heartbeat, every moment
when the heart falls apart.
