Love Starved

Love Starved

I am love starved.

Alone in a barren desert.

Parched.

Dying.

Then you appear.

My oasis.

Your skin spreads out before me.

Smooth and refreshing

a lazy river

I long to drift down

If only for a moment

so that I can catch my breath.

and withstand the dryness…

…for a while longer
