Suggestively Subjective

when i

first saw
you your
hair was
in a wrap

almost seeming
African in the
presentation
of yourself

was there hidden
a tumbling down
lost treasure that
i found or was she

bald but that never
phased me because
i saw her face without
make up yet made to be

simple purity of
poetry in motion
yet emotionally
i only need to

just softly speak 
for how dare i 
might mistak
ingly awaken 

her from her
night dreams
and take her
into my day

dreams
