dancing under the moonlight
oblivious to the pests
flying with a buzzing sound 
mosquito bite me

romance a thing of the past
a puffed-up lip can do that
I tried my best to swat him

I heard about them
hope they are prepared for me
I am not the ex

his mom’s favorite 
I’ll show her respect, that’s me
besides he loves me

that is important
they live in another town
my future in-laws

sometimes
unnoticed
sheltered by clouds
a beauty hidden
my imagination
at times the only compass
on a clear night they bring me hope
spellbound by their continued sparkle 
I wish I could reach out and touch them

our first encounter
my hazel eyes pierced through yours 
an uneasy stare 

time had no factor 
you and me in a full room 
spellbound verbal eyes 

implied promises 
confirmed as heat emanate
passion instigate

the naked ladies are kissed by dewdrops
as we share butterfly kisses
the flowers bloom like our love
we embrace a new day
celebrating spring
hearts aflutter 
with new love
and new
life

Belladonna Lily*

Wafts greeted me at the door already
Dreaded going inside, not knowing
If a clash between right and wrong
Was on the schedule again
It’s become a routine
His manners replaced,
Like his cologne
Surpass by
A wine 
Smell
