I remember how you lounged
lazily across my thoughts
smiling invitingly, stolen
glitter from some star in
the deep of your eyes

Something about your voice
curved around my figurative
enticing me out of my shell
& into hell...

Didn't we burn?

Even when singed
I couldn't help but binge
& devour the sweet taste
of your luscious lips when
eloquence trickled from
your tongue's tip & onto
my page

Boy, was I reading you!

But like most feel good things
it came to an end, you got
tangled around your bend
while I stood indecisively at
my fork- trying to use
a spoon
it just wasn't working

still, I'm acutely aware
of that invisible thing that
keeps me singing your songs
& wondering if you still hum
to mine...

Remember?

I like this a lot.

And this...made me grin at your creative insight and honesty....

Enjoyed this greatly,
