Writing My Emotions

My cheeks are flushed, My head is soft, My eyes are swimming, My tongue is tangled, My kisses are sweet, Awh... Wine how you seduce me.

The rain reminded me of you today, Of your tears that I can not stop from flowing, It gently slid down my cheeks cool and wet, I wanted to tell you I miss you, That Autumn is coming and you're not here, The Cottonwoods are changing, Oranges, reds, yellows, and browns, The Rio Grande looks like it was braided with colorful ribbons, I ache to dance with you beneath the desert sky, To feel the sand beneath our feet, and the breeze upon our faces, The scent of sage surrounding our warm bodies, I hope one day again we will share a Fall together, With cups of Chai and good conversation. Your, Q

I'm scared of what you are, of what you represent, You reflect back at me everything I fear and can not control, Why? Why is it so hard to let go, To accept the things I have no power over or sway, You are the embodiment of everything I am afraid of, I can't change you, I can't fight you, I can't make you bow to me, I can't keep you, Will it be easier when you are gone? When I no longer have my mirror in front of me?
