my heart
was never
broken
when we
parted
instead it
continues
to beat
together
with yours

it’s you
I love
your eyes
your smile
the early
morning
calls

we’ve been
apart as long
as we’ve been
together
and I long
for your touch
your kiss
your taste and smell

intoxicate me
with your aroma
let me breathe
your breath
fill me with your
oxygen
breathe your life
into mine

yes, it’s you Juan
that I love
and that I desire
desperately

come to me
in two months
and make me
whole

The sky
lightens
softly
like the eyes
of a drowsy
child
it brightens
behind
the ridge
above my
house
like a freshly
poached
egg
once risen
it strikes
billowy
clouds
making them
appear
like early
morning
jack-o-laterns

It’s weeping
over
Diamond Head
today bathing
the ogre
in green
charcoal
clouds
hang
like bad
rumors
over the giant
Waikiki
stands creamy
next door
and still
dry
ocean blue
circumvents
the island
this place
is an island
of mystery

He has
eyes
the size
of compacts
and the color
of clover

I watched
him undress
last night
peeling his
shirt exposing
a flat stomach
pulling down
his briefs
exposing
strong concave
buttocks

but it’s
his smile
that arouses
me

 

It’s late

but I’m
not tired

I have
someone
coming over
later

a promise
he made
to have me
feel better

I’m nervous
because no
man
has been able
to scratch
the itch
I have
inside

this burrowing
burning need
deep in my
belly
hurts
like a hot
match

is he
my
extinguisher
