alternate reality—sensing you

I dream in all 5 senses of you.  
 
The colors:  
blue and red  
your tender eyes  
your beating heart and passionate lips  
 
The scents:  
clean, shower-fresh;  
tasty foods; tangerine;  
and flowers--lavender and lilac  
 
The taste:  
shared popcorn, counted sushi,  
big soft pretzels;  
a shot of vodka from your mouth--light headed shock;  
a freshly brushed, long, minty kiss;  
water licked from clean soft skin  
 
The sound:  
Rhythmic breathing  
Rhythmic heartbeat  
Soft, light, lasting laugh  
ringing in my ears and mind  
long after the sound has faded  
And gentle, listening voice so hard to say good-bye  
 
The touch:  
warm, gentle yet firm  
strong holding  
sometimes playful  
someday lasting?  
 
I dream in all 5 senses  
of someday . . .
