Our shadows kiss, but our lips remain distant When I feel the warmth of her touch Her hands dismiss the mist, Shrouded around my visions When her breathe brushes against my skin I sense she’s ordained the light to come in I’ve become mawkish, susceptible to her voice. Her pitch, her tone, my chocolate Goddess The legends had foretold I lack the ability to sense the severity of the things to unfold I’ve come to know my stomach is weak, when she speaks When she abandons me, the light retreats I drink to subdue these physical pangs Shipwrecked, but only in my brain Our shadows kiss in the darkness each day
