fireflies cry
meteor showers alight the skies
walls shake and shudder with fright
once again, our love ignites

sweeten my air with thy breath
painted smiles eternal in death
euphoria - a lack of oxygen
it is yours to take

fluttering eyelashes
blinded by insecurity's ashes
memories yet etched
stroke by stroke, illustrates drowned sketches

wondrous hues color our laughter
hoping to win salvation hereafter
tolls taken, bridges crossed
warming up what once was frost

aligned prints
of natural tint
puzzled pieces; fitted keys
drinking up the traveler's tree

rain dances
with deadly chances
against concrete; impermeable
their awakening, a far-fetched fable

words hurry; count in light years
looking out, my being disappears
into yours, it shall enter
our love... a dulcet tenor
