After Your Loving Visit

After Your Loving Visit

Quiet, so quiet,
Like the inside of a great rock,
Each minute passing by,
You are farther away.

The days of love and lingering,
The kisses, the pleasing, have gone,
Your RPM’s are countless,
You are farther away.

My rooms are shaded by that solar eclipse,
And for me there won’t be another,
Will I see you, hear your kindly voice again?
Quiet, so quiet today.

I agree w/Arthur ... such a melancholy poem, Sunlite. Expressed w/such tenderness of yearning however. Transcendent is the sound of silence. An emotionally moving poem. Love and smiles always.
