Valentines Card Mirage
Upon a steep hill I look down
towards the rocky shores
focused upon a moonlit ocean
I see cascading from the rocks
rushing towards that far expanse
golden rods of molten flow
languishing up against extinguished
black as the depths of my soul
that precipice from within
turned outwards glimmering floor
breaking the distant past
churning that inescapable expanse
folding in over and over
until at last there is no more
taking in what is left my lover
rose petals brush the satin folds
a Valentines card mirage
hard to forget this night be taken hold
Hawaiian paradise but succumbs
passion replaces the dusk
our visions meet as one
tracing a pattern up and down
collapsing in a all consuming heap
of hearts pumping sheets of sweat
perspiring windows dripping with love
invade our privacy casting our futures
upon our motions of undying love
till a dry spell of blissful sleep
brings with it a consummate early dawn
