Souless winds

by Deborah Breuer

Your eyes undress me,
Leaving me naked and well,
Vulnerable to all of your tempting trickeries

You've left me exposed,
Bare to the wind,
Grasping my soul,
Taking it for a ride.

Now empty you fill me,
Deeper and deeper,
Like a miner in a cave,
You've discovered me,
And then, just as I thought I had no voice...
I cry out in extasy.

You take it as a challenge,
And as I knew you would,
You smile, you look at me and whisper in my delicate ear...
"Hold on"

And I do,
I hold on for dear life.
You fuck me between Heaven and Earth

I'm now ungrounded and when you finish,
I lie there as I watch you get dressed.

Staring at yourself you seem pleased.
I'd like to think i had something to do with it,
But who can be sure?

I gather my things and
By the time I turn around...
You're gone...

Smoking a cigarette later,
Naked, used, and still souless i realize...
Your faint scent,
The one you left on my pillow,
Will be there tomorrow,
And the day after that,
But it will eventually fade...

But me?
I have to wait for the winds to change
To become whole.

We all need something to make us feel 'whole'. I'm not sure what that is for me since I'm not sure how it would feel for me. At my late age I'm not even sure that I know what love feels like.
