Peep Hole Shadows

~ Framed by affections, unlocked, waiting... weathered of vibrant thoughts and dead bolt delusions A portal of desperate desires and relinquished pain, for the light through my cracks and crevices now shines My heart is hinged… eternally by brass pins of endless dreams, tightly fitting into the perfect grooves of your love Twist with simple ease my handle, dull and waiting for the sheen of you ever bright, glowing to polish me, to make me new Open me, swing me freely, so smoothly I move allowing the morning breeze to sift beyond peep hole shadows creating a passage so that I may walk so deeply into you 10/16/2019

Thanks so much my friend. I appreciate it. Glad you liked this one. And the cool thing is, you didn't recognize it as one of mine, which is what I was hoping for.
