Love In 2020

Mightily into endless possibilities In a coracle I sail, To once feel your hands trail Down hope's amenities... "Flickering faith, is that you?", Empty fists thudding air The static too loud to bear... "I need love, your love subdued". Bathing in benisons a million Yet, a pounding desire for a hue anew A longing lure crept and grew... One for my cheek, vermillion. My head spinning with these thoughts Lick away the learnings of the past, Hurry! I need at least this dream to last. Pinned people pile, time rots... I see myself, I scurry past... A shape, a colour and an emotion I throw Almost full, to the you-shaped furrow Caustic conversations, my new time pass.
