Her

As I looked at her and she looked at me the distance between our eyes merged and melted away she is now a memory... from long ago one that's burned into my soul from a time when my heart was ripe with a budding fervor of subliminal emotion she took me without resistance shared years seem to pass like days with passion's hunger exchanged on the lips of love lovers in a handmade cocoon hanging on the limb of life in endless motion blown about by the winds of expectations when love was a wondrous wonder of dreamer's dreams and our hearts melted into a ball of molten passion when we danced in the twilight on the color of the setting sun then rose at dawn to empty our souls of desire as we tightly held onto our illusion even as it fell through our fingers like petals from a rose crumbled and broken landing on the earth of endless thoughts of what was...what could have been had our fiery passions not burned so hot as to turn love into ashes that stain the cocoon of yesterday in our captured memory
