My longing gathers
like moisture in the air
things I can’t live without
condense into being
form you into my atmosphere
I want to pour over you
wash away your worries
trickle through your tousled hair
bead onto your upper lip
dance between your eyelashes
I love you like the rain
falling for you quietly
gently caressing your surface
rushing to wet the tongue
that I want to trace your scars with
Like a thundercloud rolling in
our fronts colliding
making passionate grumblings
breathing wind against your neck
drenching you in my essence
I love you like the rain
like a torrential, existential
downpour of my senses
with a devotion that will not dissipate
