Absinthe, Chess And The Aftertaste

A memory of a couple of days ago

Still makes chills run down my spine

Though not present anymore

I wish to believe they are to return


A walk through wilderness

Would not go there with others

A cup of black coffee on the bench

Jukebox melodies were uplifting the mood


Absinthe so smoothing

Heart like a thrilling drum beat

Two shots and a chess board

I thank you for your patience

 
A cigarette lit way

Through a late night walk

Then cinnamon scent

And the aftertaste on your lips

 
Not only the touch, but the blue eyes too

Ocean deep voice leading the rhythm of the night

I hoped the moment would last, but the alarm rang

I wonder if this reflection is to reappear.
