Some days you love me
Caressing my skin with your silken 
coolness
Calming my worried soul
Bringing me peace
Joy
Perspective

Some days you torment me
Thrashing my body with your 
power, your rage
fuelling my fears of
abandonment
Why do you push me
away?

You show me wonders
Life circling beneath my feet
Colours
Curiosities
Wonders I cannot
reach

You hide them from me
Shroud your secrets
Deny me access
Yet always 
you give me answers
You're hot
then cold
But mostly cold

You're my teacher, my lover, my nemesis, my friend
My dreamy escape
My reality check
The thing I take for granted
Yet when I am far from you 
My heart aches for
your touch
your comfort
your beauty
your pain
your testing
your reminding
that there is always a reason
to go on.
