After The Wind Passed

(written in free form with a diamante)

sitting here, thinking about you
wanting you
remembering all that we used to do
amidst the personal dissonance I had been living
you just sort of appeared
there was no way to predict…
..how your presence would ultimately resonate within me

antipathy
desolate, reclusive,
brooding, doubting, loathing,
ambiguity, hesitancy, energy, nobility
awakening, strengthening, desiring,
benevolent, repentant,
feelings

as you etched your way into my being
I was able to clarify the way I was seeing  things
it got to the point to where…
…it didn’t matter what you said or what you did
sharing togetherness with you became what I lived for
now if I could just to touch the edge of your shadow
once more, even for a moment, your love I will know
