Remembering Eric - A Poem

[Berkeley Romantic]

Remembering Eric

Clouds? parted in deference allowing the moon?s light to fall

Upon the form of the boy that lay so peacefully below.

The gentle bed of boughs laid tenderly for him

By a lover?his lover?gazing at him in wonder.

The boy stirred at the presence and stretched out,

A hand seeking that which had so long eluded

His grasp, reaching for a dream's shadow and finding

It met, at last, by warmth and satisfaction.

The lover smiled upon the form, accepting the hand.

His own, speaking affectionately without words

Soothing the fluttering breast, silently consuming

Fear, gently overpowered the willing boy.

I want more.

This is awesome. I don't know where to begin. It's perfect.
