Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

Turquoise Eyes

Beneath the slumber of a summer day the tell tale signs 
of a serene splashed beryl sky gone rye 
Bereft of love the royal sea ingraphs me and rewinds    
your turquoise eyes and misbehavin' laugh;     
Those stillson jaws still haunt me many nights 
with navy shades of tragic/ loss ;    
How can I  forget you if each time I look down     
I see that tattoo on my arm (two cobalt wings of inky hue)
that never fly nor leave my side.
