Silk

Sensual satin touches
Intertwined ribbons of desire
Lightly surrounding my passion
Kissing my lover's lips

Deferring

If I believe will he arrive
And bring with him the love I need?
Deferring hopes to sleep and dreams
Reminds me life gives no reprieve

Deferring

If I believe will he arrive
And bring with him the love I need?
Deferring hopes to sleep and dreams
Reminds me life gives no reprieve

Thirst

How long will lovers have to wait
And should they sit upon some bench?
While life decides to fill the heart
Despite the thirst it cannot quench

Equilateral Triangles

These triangles
though all sides are equal
and their angles are the same
Have dangerous, sharp pointed edges
and were never my favorite shape

Against Impossibilty

I am
a single browning leaf
traveling upward
against impossibility
to reach the branch
from where I fell
or perhaps was plucked
too early from safety
one late summer evening
Will I arrive home?
It's too soon to tell

Us

You
Nothing but
Growing infinite distance
Between memories and dreams
Me
