Sonnet to Him

The sky still sleeps as darkness weeps with cool silence.

I lie awake in the quiet my thoughts of you while you think of me.
I am aware of your love-struck loyalty and every year you prevail with politeness.
Your forged public loyalty is laughable and obvious to me.

This undying, unrelenting connection between you and me has no room for denial.

In dreams I see your eyes and hear your voice.
We smile.
We reunite in waves of warm wet tenderness submerged in passion but not by choice.

What is this strange connection?

So unbreakable our unconsciousness’ seized and thrust together.
The unsaid words between us hold more meaning than perfection.
Mere thoughts devour my heart plunging it deeper sealing the link forever.

After the union we are released to our restless faux covets able to function in light.

Our true selves only exposed once again in the night.
