Love Poem: In Tomorrow's Sunrise

In Tomorrow's Sunrise

Even when time stands 
Still the wings of smiles 
Crumble in darkness
Life stands still in places
Even where moons twinkle in

Passing moments the only
Picture hanging in this corridor is
One blank captioned “Silence” 
Is always seen when glances 
Are never heard leaving 

Incomplete messages as yesterday is 
Nothing less than a fiction of tomorrow’s
Pleasure cruises back alleyways
High seas build salty reactions 
Oblivious to desiring ships already 
Captained have run aground resting
On her left most beautiful side 
Your left most beautiful smile intrigues 

Then captures butterfly wings
Akin to music dew drops 
Play on blooming flowers 
Fighting two years of wither 

Heart left a frost bitten
Egyptian pyramid built from
Your one dimple down snow on
African Pampas of unknown
Feelings return every rainy
Season lives in September

One trips over words never 
Spoken dreams never awoken 
From the nightmares titled life
Is never an easy road to run
Feet ache then burnt in winter
Suns set earlier than in the spring

Dew no longer frozen on lips 
Disguised as lilies drunk off this 
Intoxicating experience I waft from 
Petal to petal an insignificant bee
Clothed in a garden rivaled only by Eden 

Cast out to re-grow our forbidden fruit
Tree branches intertwined lost and histories 
Scribed once more the ghosts of our
Former souls scream to birthed again
In tomorrow’s sunrise…
