Always Remember

She stroked his hand in passion and gave him life’s ultimate blessing It’s time to go in love and peace she would miss his gentle caressing Strokes of desire and passion from a wild sharp and emotional mind His loins desire and poetry the spoon for her moon hot and entwined It seemed an eternity since they first kissed and he gave her a peach Gathered union sea shells and driftwood and built a hut on the beach Tides had moved their Universe since heaven and haven joined together Tickled their fancy lust and compassion and in turn she gave him a feather Of lightness and light and they talked through memories and surrender Now it had to be the final farewell from this journey of joy and splendour Thank you and let’s not fall prey to gloom sadness but rather kindly rejoice In those one thousand and more moments since we made that firm choice Do you remember how everyone was against us and not gave us chance Just a fling an illicit affair must be all about sex and mere flirtatious dance But we stuck to each other like a butterfly courting a lavender blossom Licked lips and skinfuls of perfume your hands on my quivering bosom Read books together after you swam in my ocean under Turkish lights Flew on magical carpets to ends and beginnings of daylight and nights With glow worms and dolphins we mounted our kindness and destiny in crescendo we climaxed on satin sheets in our fantasies breathlessly The bedroom is now adorned with an IV drip stand and a catheter bag You look haggard and worn out are so exhausted and wave the white flag One more pull on the trigger and I honour your wish with one last shot Syringe full of morphine full to the brim a promise when tying the knot Farewell my Prince travel well for when you enter the kingdom beyond I know you’ll wait for me patiently until in essence we realign that bond Let us not talk any longer I shall simply hold you in my knowing embrace Our infinity last forever anywhere anyhow and always in that new place 15th September 2020
