Still You Linger Poem by guillermo veloso

Lovers for a brief incandescent moment
Woven together on a loom of hot summer passion
Revealing, sharing, daring, transparent
This duende of fire, desire and nightmare is
Stitched together like jazz notes
Your life a string of newly born riffs
Nights with cats, pen and hidden touch
Stolen nights spent inside you
Stolen nights when I tasted you, moist, anxious
Stolen nights that left your aroma an immediate memory
Stolen nights shaded away in secret ecstasy
Still the stolen night did not feel wrong
Should it have?
Lovers of love, I think, assign no guilt to its natural path
Only follow its scent wherever it leads
You scent still lingers in my dreams
You child of stars, faeries and angels
You mother lover shaman priestess teacher
You woman
