tide
I am pulled like a tide
under this crescent moon.
My thoughts gravitate to you,
a resolute rhythm.
I wax and wane with
longing, I wash up
on the shore of moments
half-faded by memory
but held fast in my heart,
less detail now, more
raw feeling, I
ebb and flow
with your pulse
in my veins,
your cool light reflecting
off my surface
like gratitude.

I love the last line. Great image here.
You craft this well… Your consonants build the rhythm which is real…
“My thoughts gravitate to you,
a resolute rhythm.”
These lines beautifully set the tone of this poem.
