Love in Black


twisted tapestry
	of greyscale
blowing in the fields of my brain
bleeding, pumping, ripping, shredding, cowering
	lick me please
i see you everywhere
		in one reaven haired girl or another
you stalk me in the creamy thighs or cleavage
	wrapped in a lace shroud
		flowing in the winds of dance
i sit here after a sequel
i am a rock
at the dining room table I stare at your framed stance
				old
I want to kiss you
I was told to forget and promise on my honor and I have broken that
illusion
tasting your smell...
			the rooms dark
			packeed boxes scatter
the steam from the shower presses your beautiful clothes in the closet
and you...
	pressed against the tile with me
I look at this letter...<breathe> letter?
you typed out your emotions to forget
i write out mine to remember
	I feel you
	I know it didn't work
	I am there
		inside
			your
				heart

		I love you!!!
