I have been bathed in you... Ice blue pools cold beyond freezing. Blackening my skin, burning me with intensity and light. When you go I tremble in darkness and wallow in selfish indulgements. I still taste you salty and musky on my lips and tongue... Afraid to swallow too deeply for fear it go. Clutching empty space, frantic to keep your warmth. Feeling it flee my fingertips in pursuit of the glow you've stripped from my sight. I become just another stretched shadow reaching at your feet. Cold and damp... Aching to be cast again and again upon sun warmed ground.
