ONE CHILLY EVENING OF JULY

she came to me

one chilly evening of July

when the menacing infernos

of my wrath had been

blazing its tempest

once more

-

until the gentle flow

of her soft kisses

and blanketing touch

of her warm cuddles

had watered all of hell down

to nothing but fading ashes

and transient mist;

-

it's when the harsh winds

of turbulent torment had

been gnashing my

peaceful being

again -- screaming of pain

of agony

of whys and hows that will never

be answered

-

yet all have been powerfully hushed

by her melodious voice

singing of love and care

into a calm moonlight

breeze, whispering her name;

-

darkness. darkness has flooded

every corner of my hope

but by the glimmer

of her angelic aura

and flash of her stardust eyes -- 

I know I am safe.

~~~

she, she had been here.

she has always been there

but tonight,

tonight is just different.

-

for as she came to me

this chilly evening on July

the coat of familiarity

had been absolutely void of presence
