For my Unnamed

How do you do it?
Make me feel the way I do
Two minutes in your city
And I'm reeling
With vivid memories of you
With your voice resonating in me.
I wasn't ever there with you
There at that spot
Where now I could see you
Sit across the table from me
And talk to me
And behave as if
It's the couple on the next table
Playing footsie, now, then.
How is it that all seems so real
Like dry wine down my throat
I feel the tingles, the bitterness,
And the taste lingers.
I love it!
But how do you do it?

Feast Anticipation

Picked the ripest
Red'est tomatoes for her, juicy
I'm cooking
For she is coming home.
We'll hug, hold hands
And baby-talk all night
Lick curry of each other's fingers
Place food bites & bites
On each others lips.

Look at me all for you
I screamed hugs on the phone
Just now,
She's on her way!
Listening to the same song
On loop for the 11th time
I await her
Lust comfort love affection
All rise in me
And warm my ears.

Every bell rings the door
Every me rings with her
And every she is only for me.
Ripe red relished!
