sunborn
Soma
you
were
so
light
when
you
arrived
the
air
laced
with
unheard
thunder
–
a
seasonal
promise
not
yet
fulfilled –
as
I
waited
for
rainbows
and
found
only
sun
spots
and
gold
flecks
across
skin
the
warmth
of
you
wrapped
up
in
my
arms
almost
insufferably
hot
and
I
would
tear
myself
away
from
your
attempts
to
lay
next
to
me
on
those
sweltering
nights
you
were
never
my
ray
of
sunshine
you
were
something
substantitatively
more
born
of
a
star
,
all
gilded,
and
as
guiltless
as
the
unbearably
heated
gaze
of
summer
that
creeps
with
unyielding
certainty
through
gaps
in
window
blinds
and
over
piles
of
half
-forgotten
laundry
in
the
dark
O
blaze
in
judgement
, glorious sphere
lay
your
searing visage upon
me
where
restless
I
lay
waiting
sorrowfully
for
time
to
erase
the
tanned
flesh
of
me
that
carries
this
blistering
and
beautiful
sunborn
mark
