at time like this - i miss you
the bass thumping outside
the singular leaking tap
a kind of isolation settling gently
inviting the unwelcome visitors
planning polite feedback and rehearsals
even though it always remains
that there is no sweeter surrender
than the two of us hidden together
willingly trapped away from others
the kisses of recognising one another
twin flames that scorch so softly
i take your hand and become -
one with the bass and the beat
re-hydrating leaking throats and
lazy lungs - breathing in tandem
joining together, flames in combination
quieting concerns and opening to love
at places like this - i miss you
i remember you and i’ve been here
before, when we have excitement
and we have colourful hope
drinking in laughter and warmth
and reckless day-dreaming and
curiously clever creations
