Forever in Mind

As It Could Be

Floating along waves of doldrums,
drifting into nights of boredom,
dreary clouds of foggy blue,
hung above laden eyelids
lull them shut…

rain lifting, fire returning,
auburn tresses twirling
like swirling dervishes,
blissfully breaking the impossible
boundaries of time and space
for a requited embrace of elation,
a unity of liberation from gravity
were two souls, mate…

“Do you remember me?”
in dreams, remembering you,
through the cacophony of beats,
skin pounding skin, nostrils tingling,
saccharine tendrils of nag champa enveloping,
eyes burning holes through fire hoops circling
a shifty bottom, listening for the one…
she calls me, her hips speaking,

dried goat’s toes dangle box braids along curves,
taunting me as we move spaciously
through time’s signature moves,
she leads the play… this fox on the chase,
hunting her trailing scent of patchouli,
sorting through her memory montage —
indulgently rewriting our play in retrospect,

the one where our hearts intersect,
two souls destined to be,
a love that couldn’t be here to stay,
in my mind, rent-free,
making the impossible possible
for the night, unbridled —
as it could be.

Yearning for a love that remains forever in my mind, even if it’s impossible to hold onto in the present
