I
Am
The coy love ballad,
Sung on banks of a gushing cascade.

I
Am
The poppy-red cheeks,
A wide brimmed hat on sun-kissed curls.

I
Am
The subtle suppleness,
Of a tango dance in the tawny twilight.

I
Am
The white handkerchief,
The one that was bathed in a strange perfume.

I
Am
The torn love letters,
The ones that fed the hungriest fires.

I
Am
The sharpest thorn,
Hidden in a bunch of yellow roses.

I
Am
The waning hues
Of photographs testing the tides of time

I
Am
The restless soul,
Walking the edges of yester year's grave.
