NEAR OR FAR?

i am so far from you, yet near
in your thoughts, in your dreams
as you are ever close by in mine
i find that however busy my life
wayward thoughts still drift back
to the woman who intrigues me
with the beauty of her spirit and
the constant heat of her passion


she states, “i miss your words”
but she never says “i miss you”
because i am never far from her
nor is her spirit ever far from me
her fragrance drifts on breezes
of all my most erotic imaginings
permeating my ears with soft sighs
filling inner eyes with bare beauty


until i taste her love on my tongue
and feel the walls of her comfort
surround the strength of my need
and who is to say if sensual dreams
are only desires of heart and mind
perhaps they’re the core of existence
more authentic than waking moments
where i’ve never touched her at all
