Another Tomorrow

http://headroominations.blogspot.com/2016/07/another-tomorrow.html

 

 

With you,

I can forget myself.

I get lost in us

when we speak

like a single grain

of sand on a beach,

like a sigh exhaled

in summer’s heat.

I completely

lose track of my time

like I’m hurtling

towards the end of the line

and I don’t even mind

the inevitable.

‘Cause I get so absorbed

in your touch

as do raindrops

atop arid earth,

and I don’t feel ashamed

of my thirst

for I’ve lived through

that wanting that hurts

and survived.

Although desiccated

by my inner cries,

you fueled my recovery –

rehydrated me

with your love for me.

It’s what your companionship

does for me:

Girds my loins,

straightens my spine,

calms my emotions

and anchors my mind

firmly in this cosmic ocean…

Daily, giving me

reason to hope in

another tomorrow.
