Amber

Amber
Softly bright
Steadily
Burns

A lone moth
Potters
Flapping
Its wings

The night
Is long
The fluttering
Retrograde

The base
Of your neck
Far away
Inviting

I am
In a bottomless abyss
I fall
And fall
Freely

From the edges
Your voice
Gently permeates
The night

If only
In my head.

It felt like shadows parting in the soft candlelit night. And the single moth may have been all that was left...

Can't help thinking of the 'cup-lip' thing. So close, yet so far...

a lot of these kinds of one-sided conversations play beautifully in my head.
