Drenched in your kiss
Submerged in such bliss
Oh love,
Won’t you rain
Down on me?

I closed my eyes to finally dream
But found less than what's before me.
So I gazed through the night
And part of morning's dawning.

If no tomorrow should ever bring
The bliss I knew that night,
I'll remember it with all my heart,
All my soul, and mind

As The End Of Paradise.

In God's yardsale
The sun he sold

He caused the night to linger
Long and cold

Our fragile globe
The light did shun

'Til you smiled
Our secondary sun

Inside A Poet
 Oct 2018 charles

My dear miss Able asked me about a hidden place.

A place where words go to find lovers.
A Tinder for f̶o̶r̶e̶p̶l̶a̶y̶  wordplay.

Where "She" swipes right on "Him" to create "Them".

Where "Un" and "Faithful" got together and made "Faithfulun"
Because "Faithful" is also seeing "Dyslexia"

Where my friend "Alone" swept left on "Everybody"
And never changed.

And "In" became "Indecent" when he, infatuated,
Increasingly indulged
Into "Inappropriation" while dating "decent" and then Indiscreetly descended into "Insanity".

Where "Baby" got "Back" after "Laid-Back" split when "Laid"
got "Off".

Miss Able doubted this place even after her first son,
"Question" who took her surname.



But this place does exist-

Where gold is mind inside a poet.

She'll read this as proof of my thoughts when she's away
That my mind never drifts, or heart ever sway,

And this beautiful ache I know as space
Is just another way to know her grace.

So I'll wait.

If only for a moment of her time,
I'll take what she gives,
A minute, or lifetime.

Make me smile
Or take it away

Give blue skies
Or turn them grey

Wish me well
Or curse my name

I'm in love but not loved
So it's all the same
