Mirage

Shimmering, silvered, dancing light

Looking through I see, delight

Straining eyes, I see you rise

Throwing away caution means, surprise

My body heats, as the light coalesces

Seeing you clear, my breath, sticks in my chest

I smell your musk your aftershave

As I look, I see you stand and wave

Syntillating, brilliant bands of light

I blink my eyes in pure delight

You are coming closer and my body responds

Ready for loving, the reaction ensconsed

I hold out my hand to the shimmering glow

But as I look back that light overflows

Blinking back tears I strain to see

Your image has gone, mirage, not reality.
