Rainstorm

Kiss me again,
Warm up my frostbitten lips,
Send heat waves through my body,
Until there’s a flood between my thighs.

I still leave the door unlocked for you,
Even though I know,
Deep down,
You’ll never walk through it.

Earthquake

I want you to rock my body,

Signs

Sometimes I wish I could stop loving you, The way my feelings have faded for others, Like the sight of your car disappearing down the street After another too-short visit.

Drinking whiskey like coffee.
