flavor of a lingering kiss her breath slightly sour'd a probing tongue her eyes furtively shifting here and yon informing me she'd blend into the shadows and not cause trouble I held onto her like she was the last thread on the forgiving cord of a life sour'd free falling struggling for breath eyes gazing into the dark, wondering where life leads next anticipation. leery to learn where all the pieces fit. I've shared much with her things not voiced to another it's that kind of a love ©January 21, 2012 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ I gave up feeling guilty just to survive a long time ago ~*~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (01-26-2012 08:27 AM).] |
