Sunset Motel

Rosemary does a lady proud.
If not for the faint aroma,
as nicotine and soft music
deliver a quiet invitation.

Her heart opens with the 
door and allows a feeling
to grow, 
a candle to be lit.
With the draw of the night,
a closing door,
she sets fire to
her insides.

The hint of desire is washed away.

Eclectic heartbreaks, but then,
maybe just daring lust
has paved such a road.
Beneath this roof is a world, 
used to recreate- 
a feeling found only 
in dreams before.
