Love Sonnet XLIV

....at day break

LOVE SONNET XLIV

 

 

As the day breaks

I fall into dreams,

dreams of you standing

by a chocolate lake,

 

cigarette dangling from your lips,

like the silence of words

you inhale inside and become

burning ash, residue

 

of internal poems and lost desires.

Dreams, hidden beneath brown

skin, wither in the night

 

as cigarette smoke, its blue-

grey surrounds your heart,

forbids the stars their light.

Romantic to the bones, dreamy till the break of dawn, loving till there is no tomorrow.
Women do love chocolate and roses, and good poetry for the mood.
