Night of Memories

I always felt safe while
tangled in sheets till dawn
as I'd looked at your smile,
draperies tightly drawn.

Idyllic reveries
of fragmentary memories
painfully pierce my soul through;
melting away without you.

I was going to say poignant, but Line did. I still want to add it, so I shall. Poignant, and heartfelt, a terrific poem, Eve.
