Writing Notes: November Challenge hosted by Sarah Doughty and A Reading Writer.
In the summer, cold sheets didn’t bother me but now the chill pervades and sliding between them reminds me of you (but then most things do) because I thought you’d be here to keep me warm, your arms enfolding me, your breath, lips, hot, ardent against my neck, like August’s humid heat embracing us. The constant traffic thunders like the ocean. In its voice our summer love songs throb, the soundtrack to the sepia-toned slideshow of us: almost lovers.

Enjoyed that. Can I have a go?
Yeah if you click on the link right above the poem, it should take you to the list of song titles. You may feel inspired if you watch the video on youtube…it helped me.

What a descriptive scene you’ve painted here! The angst is ripe on the page. Beautiful writing.
Beautiful Sascha. You can feel the longing and memories as if they’re alive.
Thank you, Mandi! 🙂
