a different kind of love

A different kind of love

Easy, in and out your breath
lungs unsullied by cigarette smoke
Siesta nap, a lazy Sunday afternoon
when flowers are recklessly nude
Breath, taking
should you stop
I would fall into a chasm 
pale rainbows, a stillborn moon
rusty stars
where words of love go unheard
Do not leave me alone 
in a city park
where old men chew tobacco
and tell passers-by
how old they are
