For You
we spoke hours on the phone
and your voice felt like home
we’ve touched our erogenous zones
and it was wholesome
a splendid untarnished experience
not even a pandemic can withstand.
we mentioned our dreams and fears
from the distance we were close
I breathed through your atmosphere
as my tender emotions rose
smells of engrossing lavender
all over my heart’s perimeter.
couple days later, sadness kicked in
you said you couldn’t
that the current state of the world
is against us, against our love’s pearl
though my replies were optimistic
you couldn’t shake off the fatalistic.
now as I think of you
under the gaze of a full moon
i miss the moments of happiness
and my phone’s ringtone craziness
wishing that we weren’t miles away
as I hoped for less depressing days.
