Waiting To Exhale Poem by KarlRomeo PierreLouis

Waiting To Exhale



I have taken my breath of you
stuttered shook and ready
I have left my heart at your feet
counting the hours faithfully till
we fall covered in skin
folding and unfolding our tender & delicate
as we play fools to the stars above
lighting our joined silhouette
from under the caress of our unfolding love

And its one more night of forgiven passion
pearl and vow filled with a certain glow from behind
I have drawn my map across the small of your back
denying the long December and fleeting summer and
I have left my fears under the welcome of your front door
leaving only traces of promise and faded images

I have stared off onto the distance
and found still your picture shading my eyes
lingering romantically inside the four corners of my mind
And I see you standing above the rejection and ache
interrupting the beams of the moonlight complimenting you
and I stand ready and colorblind to shattered colors
of the past and fallen future

I have taken my breath of you...
