I lie strategically in place Innocent framework fused With royal carapace Frail and allknowing fingers clenched and intertwined, Mimicking the honest silver circuit in the night sky As candid as the shore Each slumbered and delicate breath Vitally delivered from those sublime lips Both damp and potent I get a candied wind of An accidental consolation To my crippling worry Sorrowful, I am, my love For eavesdropping, but My reveries are your keepsakes And I, Watching you sleep, carefully In A placid coma, caging waves of covenants And exhaling tokens of a life once dreamt of I envisage the unvarnished truth, your marrow as my sustentation, Your veins, My lifeline Where each filament of platinum and sorrel remain entangled and sprawled in forever, impeccably And how drawn out and vexing My intervals of lingering for you Have been And then you leak a sigh in a dream And exhale a veil of whispers Directly to my ribcage And I simper, cradling you tighter So you can breathe my craving, My contented tribute To my one veritable sentiment. And I seal it all in the midst, Of a drifted and slumbered and deathless Kiss.
