He was a sight
When I first saw him
I couldn’t believe my eyes
A ghost-like creature
...
Oh Wonderment!
This birth of love
What madness...
...
Did you feel my kiss upon your lips
Last night as you lay there sleeping
Did you feel me snuggle in your arms
As my body sought your body's warmth
...
It was pitch-dark
I couldn’t see anything
Nothing moved
I couldn’t hear anything
...
We close doors
to lock ourselves in
or lock ourselves out
To keep things in
...
(with thanks to Mifael for reminding me that the worm
can be beautiful)
...
The fog turned everything gray
There was nowhere to escape
I tried to run but it caught me by the tail
...
IN MY MIND’S EYE
I take a breath
I take a step
...
It’s not the length
It’s the depth
It’s not the rhyme
But how sublime
...
Don’t you dare, love
Don’t you dare
Come to me at this late hour
...
