I Have A Craving Of You

I think of your skin against mine and

My mind begins to wonder and I lose it.

Till I find it, sitting by your side.

I can still smell your sent in me,

Your warmth inside me.

Your bright night

Illuminates my dark days.

Our first kiss,

Our last one,

I can taste them both in my lips.

Time and distance cannot dim the memories

Of either the first or the last.

Time and distance separated us before.

Now it is not so,

Yet, I’m not yours, I’m free

And you don’t belong to me.

Not being chained to you

Is the sweetest form of slavery.
