Twiddle

here in the dark, unsleeping,
i pull memories around me
curl into them seeking
a remnant of your warmth
a reminder of the way
your hollows match my curves
as i gather arms full of you
trace your smiling profile
until I could almost sculpt you

sometimes, as i'm seeking
slumber without your presence
it is almost possible
to doubt you could exist

Fantasy Cross-Stitch in need of a home

So I'm trying to destash some of my stuff, and I thought maybe someone out there in LJ Land might want to give the following patterns a home. These aren't in mint condition, but they've never been used, and are in pretty good shape, as they've been stored in a plastic file bin for...gads. I've lost track of how many years. 6? Maybe?
