Fantasma


Photo: Diego Fernandes

I wrote this while listening to Anita Baker.


My dream of you floats

In that place between places

Where I am so comfortable,

So capable, so balanced.

Every note is always perfect,

Every brushstoke carries

The painting to completion.

I am a passenger

Inside the warmth of you,

Your embrace.

Under your touch

Paradise waits around

A turn in the road

Across a rainy sea,

Over there,

Just beyond a kiss.

my previous comment doesn't do justice to the effect this poem had on me. It's been echoing in me ever since I read it. Over and over coming back each time in wonderful waves.
