louder still in silence


your tender lips, 
when peeled away,
tore my flesh out with them

your hunger,
crushing onto my chest,
left
a hollow pain,

a crevice where your body lay.

I find the place
you 
dove dove dove
headfirst 
for my soul

perhaps the hole already there
you simply found so fast
and slipped right down.

and now,
its emptiness more pronounced



~~

but still,
the lighter touch remains much longer.

the grazing of your fingertip
along my cheek

lighter.... lighter


curling down my back


weaving... weaving

around my tender neck.

the more you are gone
the more the memory
entangles around.

my breath 
becomes
shallow... shallow.

the echo of your touch
is Louder 
still in silence.
