Cornelia Mattioli Poet Free verse

The Secret Room

Row me out Captain
to our secret room
Steal me far from shore
Let me sit tight against you
Bathe with me in this gold-flecked light forevermore
I’ll trail my fingers through the warm silk of the water beneath
While we glide silently towards the edge
of the woods velvety deep
Where whispers of our embraces lie hidden
The moss covered banks imprinted
with the secrets we keep
Row me out Captain 
Dip your oars into the watercolors of my soul
Take me away, give me wings
Let me float among the lilies sweet perfume
Watch with me the sun,descend and surrender
Help me always remember
This time, this space
Set adrift in the center
Of this 
Our secret room
