Love Poem: This Is Where I Am

This Is Where I Am

You met 
me lost up the road
crossed 
car park shadowed
vague memories of last 
time before park 
dark 
fear of threats

deserted wet gloomy courts

phone rings

you
where are you?

I tell you I passed the stadium shadow twice roundabout round 
and round I go
down and down nightmare
trapped

you’d be there in 2 minutes
waiting
barker stone voices through dark people going to their night time

fine 

me 

waiting

you’ll be there
you won’t be ages 
emerging
from shadow 

shoulder shining
kiss with tongues hold 
you 
where I fit you 

take me home
