The Carolina Sky

Brickwork looming above me

Towering into the midnight blue

Carolina sky, few clouds scudding

Obscuring those diamond points

Of distant stars and planets

I notice it all, take it all in

But it pales in comparison

Because you're there, warm arm

Wrapped around my waist as we walk

Mine around your shoulder 

Giving me leave to breathe in

Every last miniscule particle 

Of how you smell and feel

In this moment only wanting one thing

Our lips, to meet.
