Ebony Longing

I wanted

To be

With you

Alone

And talk

About

The weather

I wanted

To ask

You

About

Your day

I wanted

To undress

You

With my

Understanding

I wanted

Your eyes

Ebony

To concentrate

On me

And I

Wanted

To feel

Your perception

Of my

Insecurities

In your

Touch

But alas

I need

You

To rise

Up

From

The grave

For your

Death

Is

Unbearable
