Love Poem: Dea My Love

Dea My Love

Must my heart wait in idle
as light dissolve silent christen

O how each rose petal fall beauty of spring
in crimson tear
and song of sorrow

behind faint curtain
your muted love 
peers
forgetful and unforgiving 

as you lay upon jasmine warmth
I call your name
I plead soft murmurous promise

together...
alone... 
where shadows dance
