I was home thinking about you. Feeling the distance between. Quietly missing what was momentarily mine. Feeling fortunate for the chance to have known such passion and connectedness. I was anxious to replicate that feeling again. Heavy with though. I wanted to walk it off. Exhaust some of my anxious energy.
It was raining lightly. I stepped out into the darkness. A cool breeze hit my face as the moisture in the air bathed my skin. Leaving a dewy layer of earthy wet sat on my brow. My heart is overwhelmed with the feeling of happiness. I close my eyes and allow myself to wander. Taking in the smells and sounds. Thrusting my mind back into the tall dark spaces we keep. Where just you and I meet. Entangled in a memory I cannot escape. My eyes water and my heart joyfully yearns at every thought. An unexpected surprise. Intelligence and vibration. A shared connection unlike I’ve felt before. The reality of the moment imprinted within all my senses. The heat of a glowing fire touching my back and warm blanket against my naked body. The smell of freshly wet moss and pine. Or maybe it was birch. Silly you. That sideways grin. Standing there in front of the dark backdrop of a quiet dream, blue eyes sparkling with the reflection of the flames. The sound of the rain and the creek flowing over the luscious green forest hidden beneath the darkness echo in my ears.
