Embrace of Solace - A Poem

I crave
an embrace
of solace
as gentle wings
of desire
take my solitude
to singe my veins.

I stand
& breathe sadness
as love succumbs
to the test of time.

I whisper
your name
in memory of
yesterday's tears.

I hope
a subtle stir
arises for me
in the barren stone
of your heart.
