#8898 - My Prediction Comes to Pass: We Work Together
We have a secret,
Delicious, heady as helium;
our shared past
A narrative only we've read,
reminiscing on nights spent solitary,
tossing under covers with the memory
of meetings, slick, sticky, visceral
in their portent.
Interrupted needs that go unnamed
Your blue top the color of my longing,
Suffocation's hue, denial's tint
Your cheeks drawn, long in the effort
to hide thoughts at the sight of me
Did you wish to shout my name?
Loud, powerful, in emotion's thrall,
Abandon this well-laid charade?
I dream you had given me voice, staccato
as an umpire, triumphant as the lover
that you are: loved, my Heart, my body's Own.
I dream of prophecies; Rambaldi's--
and ours, that each day
we further spin, a Lover's knot
entangled: We work now, in tandem,
voices silent, still
sensation ever-present
taut as zither strings,
engulfed as flaming tanker;
for the flesh translates that
which the tongue, though willing, cannot.
