Sweet

by Angela Thomas

You called me last night really late with your sweet
and heady drinking voice on. I listened to your words
like a child licks sugar off of their fingers, "I love you
Baby, and I'm gonna hold onto you forever...I can't

wait to be with you.." I endulged and smiled, falling
asleep for the first time in weeks with soft dreams
filled with billowy images of our domesticated life
as we move and grow from the same soil. I fell in love

again with you last night, just as hard, if not harder
than the first time. You reminded me why I wait,
night after night, by myself, for the phone to ring
and your name to come up on the caller ID. I wait

because you are the only person who can make me
smile when I want to scream, the only man to make
me cry from the beauty after we've loved, and the only
person who was created from the very star dust

that formed my body and breathed life into my soul.
You are my celestial twin and the man that I want
to spend the rest of my life with. Last night, last night
I gave you my heart.
