Gert W. Knop Poet Free verse

Moments of Despair

In these moments of loneliness and despair
I would like to drink your love.
In these moments of loneliness and despair
I would like to see the sky in your eyes,
the sunrays coming from your heart.
In these moments of loneliness and despair
I would like to read your mind again, as I did so many times before.
In these moments of loneliness and despair
I would like to touch again the orchids in your eyes,
to smell the odor of your hair after a morning rain in spring.
In these moments of loneliness and despair
I would like to touch  you as the waves undulate the soft sands of a far paradise.
In these moments of loneliness and despair
I would like to drink from your lips the sweet wine of desire.
