Trapped
I found the minutes of my lover well,
And awaited each one in pictured form.
Her touch and 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 where 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.
