silent blue enveloping
The taste of blood is still fresh on my tongue.
Rose petals on a greyscale background,
crushed between my fingers and a promise.
A sky of broken bottles and love
Wind of echoing sobs and a firm grip
Streaked with orange and red and tight lips,
the former; slick dark pavement
or headlights in your eyes
turn you out to sea with wishes of sandboxes
and nibbling in the garden under the fountain, sunset,
whispering tumbled secrets like a fresh breath of the ferns
around you in my arms.
Yesterday speaks like surgery
of love and leaves
my wandered mind staring out to silent blue enveloping
Tomorrow morphs shape of your lips and sugar,
maternal eyes of a soft perseverance.
Sweet chestnut and shine,
I fear and wrap myself all up
in your web to sleep with you,
a look to melt me eternally and shame me
Clawed fingers and a silent kiss
of your eyes with a sigh when I doubt and
You shake your head trivially,
breathe into my lungs with electric fingertips
and a small crystal vial for the careful collection and capture
of the release of my convulsing chest
in your hands and on your breast.
