stripped bare

by clay - Aries


one night 
late last year
i stripped bare
 and stood
in the freezing rain
 inner fire 
burning snow
beneath my feet
out of breath
deep in heat
i sat on the swing
to lite a smoke
had to laugh
all the time past...
it's you
deep within
smoldering
 through my mind
i wear you
like salty skin
numb...in freezing rain
worn thin
had to laugh
even more
when i froze
to the chair
completely unaware
of time passing
engulfing thoughts
with our love dying


Reason for writing:

    by reasoning unannounced to me...this is the way I see things
