The painful poignancy of desire

Subtile emotions

My heart quivers
But ever so gently
With the tremor of
Agitated dreams
My eyes wonder
But only so slightly
Disoriented
By the intuitions I feel
Your soft voice
Ended abrubtly
Echoing in the phone
I still held
And your goodbye
Oh so politely
Sent a chill
Through the warmth
Of our love.
