I envy the breeze that caresses your face
kissing your neck and skin
I\'m jealous of the sun, that encircles you in a warm embrace,
bathing your body with a smile of light, where I would\'ve liked to have been
I covet your shadow as you hug it so tightly
wrapped around you, an intercourse with no sin
Oh that I were the evening air that you breath nightly
through the darkness, touching you so tenderly within
I wish that I could be your most intimate thought
stripped naked to reveal the beauty of all that you are
Wet from the rain of tears when we parted
I always believed that you would return from afar
To staunch the hemorrhaging caused by your absence
I longingly yearn to be the sands of time
blown back by that breeze, to before I first saw you
prior to ever dreaming that you might be mine
