Evening bleeds
a flaxen seed

Will not make this -
an easy read

Smudges smear
Words tear

So de soleil
It’s not engraved

Moss in clumps
as matted hair

Thick as knots
in tapestry

Tell a tale -
A quick story

In lines as fine
as silky thread

Back at the top -
the first line read

before i sleep,
i hope you're there.
sing the feelings disappeared.
sobered up to face my fears.
loving you,
will always scare.

I hear you screaming,
   “THIS IS POISON!”

But you’re still drinking
    From the bottle.

First time kissing

Do you remember?

It tastes sweet still

After all these years

First time kissing

Do you remember?

I'm sure you do
