Cocktail of Chemicals

"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it..."  E.E. Cummings


It's another night... I open the  curtains
my mistress is hidden in moonlit meadows.
vastness of space inked in her fingerprints
flows in fantasy, filling a familiar fragrance.

I am no longer alone, a sea of passion tides
smear the stillness of a sedated sandy shore, 
with the moon blushing in lustful lovelight
It's a cocktail of chemicals, cordless control.

a Ferris Wheel spinning forever in frolic 
latitude of love lost in longitude of life.
hope and reality swirl in dizzy dreams 
searching Spring secrets in September skies.

A butterfly had once asked it's wildflower
Darling dear, Will you please forget me? 
It's  twenty years in tapestry of time...
You have taken me with you, there's no me.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
