I will tell you not of our
Secret mangrove tenement,
Tunneled through the space
behind both of our eyes.
A place meant for whimsy
and bioluminescent fauna,
fawning faux sun light
out into obsidian night.
Nor will I tell of our
soul’s soft meridian,
served on the half shell
to both kind and prying
eyes, distant though
unarguably tied— ribbons
spun, fastened, dyed
For what end should I tell?
When your very presence is
Heaven.
And your very absence
Hell.

I will tell you not of our

Tunneled through the space

Nor will I tell of our

served on the half shell
to both kind and prying

unarguably tied— ribbons
spun, fastened, dyed
For what end should I tell?
When your very presence is
Heaven.
And your very absence
Hell.
