Eve’s Rib
Response
East of Eden

I feel these miles of
space
between us
as an ache
in my heart
just above
and to the left
of my still-sore
rib, bruised from
when your arms
held me breath-tight
and your lips danced
on my throat
and we moved
together
and I called out
our name.

The feeling of romance is prevalent. A beautiful poem.
Very provocative- I am listening to vox poetica as I discover this work…
Nicely done, both of you.
