Trapped

I found the minutes of my lover well And awaited each one in pictured form Her touch her shape did her eyes compel The coldest times became a space so warm I claim no reason when obsession reigns As burning veins cause no reasoned thought And stoked the fire to its lifting flames In a world of mad fragrance, both were caught Trapped together when loneliness was found Love spent, time lost, with no guarantee A moment taken from the storms around Another world to which both did flee The rush of years in a place long gone A memory held, time now walks upon 4/8/20

I really like the last three lines letting the reader know the previous lines were from memories of years ago. Congrats on this passionate and romantic winner. Sara
