sultry kisses of an oft forgotten goodbye, imagined letters returned to those without the courage to send them, whispered desires hanging in the cold night air.
playing with words for no reason but to revel in the way they slip and slide through your fingers.
waking up from a dream where your hand slid down my body ever so slowly, from a place where i could feel your lazy smile daring me to pretend like i was still sleeping, waking to a chill that forces me to pull my blanket tighter around my skin, to gather warmth from memories long buried.
wilting hellos - decadent smiles - ears that stretch to capture a phrase that turns -just- so
wish upon a shooting star. take pictures of a moose. wake up spooning with a stranger. kiss someone and take their breath away.
if it makes you happy. then why the hell are you so sad?
wish i knew.

i love the way you word things

That feels like several poems, knitted together beautifully. I like the first "paragraph" the best, because I've been in that situation so many times ("imaginary letters"; "without the courage"). The details change, but the story changed the same.
just wanted to re-terate how awesome " i could feel your lazy smile daring me to pretend like i was still sleeping" that line is. i completely have that same exact memory, a hundred times over. awesome!
well, hmmm... that - shoulda been an i.
i peer through the film of sadness that coats my eyes.
you know, in all my life, I've never been mistaken for a butterfly...

I've missed you. How do I learn to live without trees?
TO me it would be like learning to live without my closest oldest friends...
