Pulling long strands of your lemon grass hair from my clothes, I consider, as I watch them fall to the ground one by one, Should I let you go as easily? Coffee stains, you see my Darling, are not so easy to remove. And amber stones infect my heart with rapidity. I stole an esoteric kiss from red, enraptured, trembling lips, While eyes deep and wide enough to drown in shot me through the chest, And fingertips Traced my limbs Through candle-lit smoke rings. And achingly beautiful birthmarks, scars and loveable idiosyncrasies Swirl around my mind, awash with whisky, And Puccini, And suicidal Butterflies. A dangerous, heady, Olive-green elixir. An ethereal melee perpetuating unrest, And thoughts of when I'll be seeing you next... And other nervous questions, Like where can you get a good night sleep round here?
