Black pearls and feathers

 

As a gaze at the moonlight,

and glance at the clock;

"11:30"
 

“Humph. You should be here

by now”.
 

Anticipation and longing erupt

all through me.
 

My heart is beating, my skin is

moist, my throat is dry,
 

I feel like birds are flying and

nesting in my stomach.

I’m beyond nervous.  But, my

longing for you exceeds every

emotion.

I love you, it’s true.  I know

that your coming too, cause

you love

me. 

So, I'll wait..

I'll sweat, I'll drip, I'll glisten, I'll hunger and swallow 

in the moonlight,

in black pearls and feathers

(and your favorite pumps)..
