Whisper, Daily 35

35. Next to the soft skin of the lobe whisper As poetically as leaves fall I need you. This grasping awkward clinging is not natural As simply as breeze sweeps Do you need me? You break it open and lose fluidity by wanting As drastically as desert drought Will you miss me? Now tenderness is but a duty like a birthday card As closely as freeze binds Do you love me?
