Separate Rooms


Silently, I glimpse white lace on a silken spread.
Hesitant, beauty being one of the few things to make me so,
I slip into her room.
Her absence does little
to remove her presence, or my fear of it.
Slowly, cautiously, I move to her dresser.
Calloused hands move from one precious item to another,
admiring and caressing.
Each has its own special gift for me,
a man born to hard work and toil.
There is a feminine beauty so unique to her,
so ethereal in it's quality, that
it brings an ache to my stubborn heart
and warms the embers of a love
I alienated so many years ago.

Just reworked my old poetry page. Check it out before geocities takes it down. Yoin

One of your very best, dear Yoinn.

A gesture that reveals your real feelings ...

Love,
Margherita
