Familiar as self

we see each other through the shadows

that space scatters between us

and our visions have pierced the smoke

that time billows into our days

each time you journey through the dark

I reach for your flesh to hold

every time I whisper your sweet name

you long for my breath on your ear

the want bleeds into the routine

stealing our thoughts from the now

a gravity that wages war on our lives

each other becoming our drug of choice

as we revel in the could be conversations

and seek out the eventual rendezvous

our souls are content in this communion

of distant voices familiar as self
