Window
I believe
In the promise of yesterday
The reflection of tomorrow
The precipice of your pouty lips
The sheer of your jagged hips
Eternity blinds the depths
Of pain's echoing eclipse
I forgot
Why the sun never lies
Silence washing over me
Like warm chestnut eyes
A whisper of winter
Swirled in your touch
A fall to remember
A contour to clutch
I watch
To hear your sweet name
The leer of your tipped chair
The saunter of sideways hair
Throw around legs
Curled naked feet
Tapping the open perfumed air
I felt
The fingernails of your fire
Midnight's moaning barbwire
Teeth baring shadow lit drapes
Lust found in fogged disgrace
The night forever broke
Love's glass embrace
