Romantic

a romantic breath
          left unbroken
               in stillness
                    hearts beat

     under the
          cimmerian
               lulling
                    restful still night 

     a new beginning
          of twilight 
               to see
                    the tidal 

     wave of
          ember flames
               passionate
                    eyes so sensuous 

     is intimate sweet fruit
          taste
               of hope favored love
