Beneath The Line

0 posted 2015-12-21 01:00 AM


You lay there so still
As though you
Are waiting, waiting
For a special kiss

Your gown flows
Freely over your body
As if twirling once more
In a moonlight dance

Your arms folded gently
Beneath your breasts
Your hands at rest
One upon the other

Just one last kiss
My darling
Just one more gentle embrace
As my tears softly fall

...I will always love you


Here's to you and here's to me and should we ever disagree, here's to me!

Gentle and poignant, romantic too. I can also see it as a figurative representation of a "situation" you put to rest delicately, keeping the love alive within your heart.

You always stir "heart motions", Mr. Martini!

It's a beauty in its melancholy.

Not unlike sleeping beauty except without the waking. Your dance with death here is to gentle music. ~L

Losing the one you love leaves a long trail of tears to be sure.

Whatever else you have written Martini, this rings true. If it isn't true, then somehow you've come to unnaturally possess an intuitive sense for death and sorrow.
