Blowing smoke rings on the patio
You said you'd quit when we both know...
I couldn't see your face
And you couldn't see mine...
Do you get infatuated with strangers
who are simply being polite...
I arrived and stood at the widened door
Sepia toned wall welcomed my arrival...
How does one ignore
The urge to take her hand...
Two black butterflies unite
In this lighting bulb...
i roam and i seek
for the man i want to keep...
The cobblestone ground
Wavered more than me...
A canvas simply can not capture
The beauty of her rebirth...
I watch you
pet the butterflies...
Words hover on trembling lips
While the heart yearns for a love...
Crystals shine within her eyes -
Whispering tales of past lives...
