Remembrance

A Poem by Sarah Jane

He is solid, he is real.
He is mine. 

Nausea consumed coffee
Over probing discourse
His gentle smile authentic
His soft gaze assuring

"When can I see you again?"

Fragile contact between sleep
Quiet confessions between breaths
His limp arms reaching
His tepid warmth embracing

"What are you thinking about?"

Bedtime routines, which tie?
Pajamas and fresh suit
His shaking hands revealed
His commitment, surprising  

"Is that a yes, then?"

Brittle emotions with no names
Consume all lights in a room
His scent is reliable, hes there
He is solid, he is real

He is mine.
