Morning by the Sea

Enveloped in a blanket of soft golden hues
She lies unaware of my silent adoration.
Her beauty simply astounds

LONGING

She walks in shadows,
Memories
her companions
Of a time
she once knew
In a place where
she once
was smiling
With you.

Where

-the track spinning-

in my ear
i hear lauryn hill
singing to "tell him"

The peak of happiness.
Rushing memories of your smile.
No

Why should I fear?
The rage of men
with fist of steel
among caboodle of warriors
when your burning love for I
unique and untainted
is

Smooth as silk
Soft, yet firm
Do I dare to touch again
Her collarbone?

Warm and welcome
Electric elevation
Trust I taste sweet
