Longing

This night
cold and lonely
brings with itself
some longing of you
and me
together anywhere and
everywhere
looking into each other
all through the night
with glasses and without them
with our hands wrestling
with each other
and feeling all the curves
and broken ribs
because the heart that we have
has it’s sharp pieces
piercing through the chest
that breaks a few bones
once in a while.

Bodies touching each other,
skin over skin
nothing else
slowly shedding the clothes
we wore before the night
because they are no longer useful
for all the escapades we have in mind
for all the adventures we are looking
to carry out in the darkest of the night
with rain falling on the background
to settle any dust after the long day
makes for a perfect song
in the distant
and sings the ballad of our love.

This night
is lonely because we both are way too far
to touch each other
or see each other
or scan each other’s bodies with nothing but
our lips
and so there is a sense of longing tonight.
