innocence

still flashing
behind my eyes

duller now
almost gone now...

but when I knew you


my eyes were
the sky
trapped in
two circles

begging to
taste the entire world
and your lips
in one swoop

my arms were passion
encased in
pale skin
begging to be
glorified
by your fingertips

by your stormy embrace


it is true
that
I loved you

and that you dropped it
on the floor
with
clumsy hands

shattered

and you forgot to
clean it up

but I don't cry
anymore

I am simply still

waiting for your
beautiful storm
to
claim me

amidst these
blue skies

Amazing how each new scar on our heart takes away also the innocence needed to believe in this ruthless world.  Hold on tight, storms never last forever they have their season as well.  Loved the imagination and the vision it creates.

Death, be not proud, though some have called thee,
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
