The Beauty of Us Premiere Contest Winner

I drift away,                     yet you are still by my side,                           aching for my love,                           if only in spirit-             I need reassurance...             you stay with such ease. I sift away, yet I am still in your thoughts, remembering my passion, if only in desire- I need compassion... you give with such mercy. For you are my hourglass; your grains that sift through my narrowness- and I am your dew drop, quenching each petal that holds together your nectar. September 9, 2017
