POEM for JER

"I need your love.
I was certain you were sent from above.
I haven't kissed your lips in 5 days.
Without that sweetness I feel in a haze.
Your toasty warm body pressed to mine.
The hours click by as we escape time.
Your handsome face rests in my palm.
The soothing comfort brings you inner calm.
It's been a rough road for us, the squeals, the bumps and the turns.
Twisting our words as our stomachs churn.
But in order for me to have your loving coo's burnt in my ear.
Your crumpled fingers tangled in my hair.
When it's too much for my heart to bare.
Constricting the music that escapes from your Soul.
I must forgive you....and just let it go."
--R.B.S.
