I come to you at night,
parting blue shadows —
the moon rests on our skin
your desire
ripples up my thighs—
fluttering in hidden places
I love you with ache,
sweetness, and flame—
unlike any other
I longed for you
throughout time ... life after life—
your soul is my beacon

Author Notes
SENRYU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. Unlike Haiku, senryu is about human nature and doesn't need a season word. It resonates on a deeper level, leaving the reader enlightened and making an insightful connection between the top two lines and the last one, called the SATORI. It's written in 17 syllables OR LESS and three lines.
Thank you very much for reading and reviewing my poems.
