Under the oak tree I sit, tracing the sea of innumerable stars, all like golden bars reflecting off horizon shores. The lull breeze, like your arms once, held me tightly in its embrace. Tho, bragging to the stars; the last time I saw you- you were still as handsome as the first day I laid eyes on you. The last you held out your hand, touched me, sent me whimpering as I melted against you. There is no other who compares to you. The last you left me without so much of a farewell, but before the dawn I came back to your side to get the last kiss. 11/29/2018

Beautiful, beautiful, so beautiful and as always, your pen writes in the language of kings through a naturally flowing ink.

Beautiful but sad poem, Eve. But I have a feeling she will find a new guy and there will be a first kiss.
