Blowing on her hair I thought I was finally in heaven, a place that had always eluded me, a place that would never accept me, She smelled of lush, playful lavender, she felt soft, soft like the petals of a crocus on the first day of spring, and as I play with her hair I feel so secure, so loved, so blessed through all the pain I had caused, As I kiss her I look into those grey eyes, they scream for me to look past the beauty and let her in, "I wish I could" I tell her, but she just smiles and presses her head into my chest, Smelling that scent, so lovely, I begin to fall asleep, embraced by only good dreams and beautiful sounds, and so I rest on, and on, and on, until I feel light and snap awake, There she is, across from me, naked with shadows caressing her body in such a way that it haunts me to realize what had happened, as something that was never mine to take, I snatched it from the grasps of her maker, I am to be impugned, But for now we dress, her portrait in black and mine near the same

Awaken at Dusk
Blowing on her hair I thought I was finally in heaven, a place that had always eluded me, a place that would never accept me, She smelled of lush, playful lavender, she felt soft, soft like the petals of a crocus on the first day of spring, and as I play with her hair I feel so secure, so loved, so blessed through all the pain I had caused, As I kiss her I look into those grey eyes, they scream for me to look past the beauty and let her in, "I wish I could" I tell her, but she just smiles and presses her head into my chest, Smelling that scent, so lovely, I begin to fall asleep, embraced by only good dreams and beautiful sounds, and so I rest on, and on, and on, until I feel light and snap awake, There she is, across from me, naked with shadows caressing her body in such a way that it haunts me to realize what had happened, as something that was never mine to take, I snatched it from the grasps of her maker, I am to be impugned, But for now we dress, her portrait in black and mine near the same
