Clasping to her words
       like vines of wild ivy desperately soaking in          
        the inner beauty
That shes conceals within.

a single reply
    takes the air from an empty room.

Her presence: the weightlessness of floating hearts.

We defy gravity  
through stanzas
Every line convicts
Me of passionate crime
Every syllable is a life
sentence.

Unraveling her
        inner mystery
     Is my dark muse.
beautiful.
     intoxicating.
Our reality
     complicated.
