Eve Roper Poet Monorhyme

You Intoxicate Me

My hushed mind woke furious from love when night came. 

You'd outline a path and traced the lines of my frame. 

Not once did I choose to close my eyes to your game. 

Morning came as it always did full of grief blame 

What's left a blur, stained and soiled, brought shame.

Tied to passion I knew I'd never be the same.

CayCay Godwin September 2, 2019 at 9:51 PM I could say been there, done that, bought the hat and got the t-shirt but how would that sound to others? I don't care - I felt your lines and they are the product of some excellent writing. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
