Love's Last Reflection
State of our endeared union to appraise
Day dreamers shadowed by palling haze
Lover's moon now in the waning phase
Mercurial waves bristle on the surface
Detached planets spinning into malaise
Your satin sheen; melancholy shield doth glaze
Pale, fluttering beams my floundering libido chase
Once silted dunes, you spindled into cratered maze
Taut, lubed curves inflated pockets now encase
On your spent years my jaded eyes do gaze
One last glimpse Time's sterling mantle to efface
Then with penitent tears your tenured lease will erase
