I moved
to brush
your hair from face--
longing lingered
in my fingers...
worship
pouted
in the trace--
shadows
shed their doubt--
I lingered...

There is a "catch"
of you, in eye--
shadows whisper
"wonder why"--
there is trace
of you on skin--
hopes that sun may
dawn again...

echoes whisper
in my ear--
haunting
of an old day done--
echoes whisper
in my ear,
taunting
of a new day's blood.

zzzzzzzzz

(hated the last verse)

Serenity,
Yes the first verse is the best, but it was all good.

funny, I read the first verse? and all I can think, is "oh baby..."

I HATE me for that, yanno.

Love sucks. But only when it's really good...

dont make me tell Ron to take your edits away
cant have you breaking the mirrors before I get to see me in them

When your own emptiness is all thats getting through,
There comes a point when youre not sure why youre still talking,
I passed that point long ago.

Love sucks, but only when it's really good should be a poem of its own.

And you could always change th' last word to sun, if that works.

These smiling eyes are just a mirror for the sun.

I was trying to write this earlier, now you've already done it.  Damn.  Loved it, K.


Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely and complete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me
