 I Need You

I need a lover, a mirror, a reflector
to see me truly. 
I need you.
I need an army, a battalion, a fortress
to fight my battles.
I need you.
I need the world to lay quiet for a day,
For an hour,
Til I find you.
I need life to chose sides, and always
Pick me
First, above all.
I need you
Lover, friend to always be there,
Reside with me, bid with me, side with me
Always.
I need you.
Who would that be,
You must know by now.
The you of this world
Has to be me.

Rainy Kiss

There was a kiss in the rain.

Two umbrellas overlapping
At different heights,
A canopy of color
In the grey and moist daylight.
Ankles wet, I slide into your kiss,
I fit under your arm
In the sideways kiss of good bye,
Leave taking, see you soon,
One foot going the other wishing to stay.
Warm and flush from your presence
In the stillness of the moment.
A heart stopping
A heart filling
A heart opening
Moment
Where the world disappeared,
Two umbrellas overlapped
There was a kiss.
