Where are my angels?

I am missing you through all my angels-
through summer's shades of sunlight
filtered by Evergreens and glinting
down to light your face.

By the spread of coastline
reflected in your shaded eyes
and aviators.

By the black, auburn,
blonde, and red of your locks
that fall around your teeth
and bounce off your cheekbones.

You are pulling on my ankles
filling my thoughts with the ache
chocolate filling deep into my lungs
and exhaling to sit on the lip.

You are dancing in my living room
smoking my heart
after drinks at midnight
and locking my eyes to yours
with allure cast in iron.

I am loving you through
the song of our memories
and yearning to set
my hand into yours
once, twice, a million times more.
