your room.
a blood red blur
posters plastered to the ceiling
window halfheartedly flung open
sun filtering in
kissing your silhouette
wrapping you in a halo of gold
a dark angel in disguise
..
i'll never forget
when the sun touched
your
tousled caramel curls
satin soft
midnight at first glance
golden cocoa powder
the next
wild dreams
tucked beneath
a blue beanie
...
oh,
and those
fox-like
silver
Mediterranean eyes
a kaleidoscope of greens and blues
speckled with the colors of the night ocean
burning-
burning
unspoken words
into my skin
....
that
cinnamon
honey skin
soft and blushed
like the pink petals
of spring tulips
sitting prettily
on that milk chocolate brown
forever summer skin.
.....
and
your
baritone,
cello voice
dark fudge rich
words
s p i l l i n g
out of those
crisp, autumn
red lips
your murmurs
d ri p p i n g
like melted dark chocolate
sweet honey molasses
soft and
warm
warm
warm
warmth was all i felt
unthawing this cold heart of mine
and perhaps i'm
c ra zy
but,
i could already feel
your beautiful june flowers
peeking through
the softened earth
of my heart
