I Imagine : A Poem


drumming droplets
beat a rhythm
something inside me
misses you more

I reach out
drench myself
ruthless needles
wet my bare arms
prick my face

I imagine
your hard stubble
stings my softened skin
as your searching lips
explore & seek
before they find
& merge
firmly with mine

  1. Good one. Don't you try for rhyming words? I do in my poems.

    1. Thank you! Yes, I do like to write rhyming couplets. Please read my other poems too, many of them rhyme.
