Endless

Do I fly into another day without you?

With wings of a luminescent swan,
I swoop towards heavenly certainties
Holding each verse your breaths create
On our virgin parchment

Do I dream another dream for serendipity’s touch?

A touch against crevices’ misunderstanding
Stroking forgiveness under lips of a luxurious whisper

Where are your thoughts?
Where are your memories of yesterday’s certainty?

Do I ascend towards sacrifices’ downfall with weighted inhales?

Hoping each moment our paired hands cross,
Will not become downplayed uprisings

My solaced smile urges for your tunnel vision. 

…

Because new sunrise’s pertinent grin has yet to be unwrapped!

Yet, they say tomorrows’ hidden asterisk
Is not guaranteed

But, this love,
THIS LOVE,
Is for today

Unwrapped
For you

Endlessly

Hi Drake, I don't know how I missed this one. Live one day at a time and wait for the sun to smile on you again. Love it. Still a while before sunrise here. I think I will take a break from poetry when it comes to sit on the porch with a cup of coffee and unwrap the new morning.
