another day in paradise

the present hurtles
quickly without,
threatening
the serenity within.

-------------


we
tumble together
through
mists & fantasm.
we lust,
we conspire,
we whet a growing desire.


I delve
deep
into
the truth
of you:
sly eyes look up,
expectant,
and a soft heart glows
dependant.




under a watchful Moon,
glistening bodies
bathed
in silver
lie,
empty
of hope
or pride.


a future written
is a future lost,
so we stay true
to love at every cost,
knowing dreams
carry a power untold,
feeding the flickering fire
of a happy wicked soul.
