We Stand

I have fallen
into a mist
confusion
hazy smoke of exhaust
and the taste of you in me.

surround me
your scent
intoxicating
addictive
calling me
begging me to touch
when I wish it wasn't
against your will,
but I can't change
your mind
and you can't change
me.

So we stand.

Denial facing eyes

Yearning to love. Fade

into the dark night
where you left me standing
at the corners
of my sanity.
