The Blood & The Bones

Chasing sunsets and sunrises.. Whatever I must do to get to you.

A handful of hours, a few hundred minutes and the pressing of my lips to yours as many times as time allows.

I drive. I drive as fast I can. My hands grip the wheel in anticipation of your scent, your touch, your hardness sliding into the softness of me.  Miles and miles of wanting you. Craving you. I punish the pedal and try to calm my racing heart.  It is all worth it even if I arrive to an unlocked door and a dark house.. You will be there warm and waiting for me to climb into your bed and settle in next to you, pressing my back to your chest. Feeling your heart speed up a bit and then slow and calm as it does when I am near.

In just a few hours I’ll awake to leave so that I may go back to my own town and live my own daily life without you near me.  As the road stretches out before me and behind me I begin to count the minutes until I feel whole again.

Leaving bits of me behind as reminders that I have been there and I will return..   My toothbrush, my heartbeat, my smell, my love.

They say be with someone who will drive three hours just to see you for one. I say love someone who makes you want to chase the light just to spend a night in their arms.
