The Girl Next Door

The Girl Next Door 

The baby breeze blew briskly 
Like the swiftness of a light limb, 
Caressing my lonesome heart, 
As it bore her voice nigh: quest of hearts. 

I looked through the silk curtain
Obstruenting my view of the silken. 
She was in her night gown: cruel bikini. 
The swell of her breast, a calling fountain. 

I wanted to dash into the waves, 
Get locked up in its coziness. 
But, she pulled the curtain over again:
The girl next door just never cares. 

Return I then to my cushion again disappointed, 
With a tortured hope: perhaps, she feels same bout me.

Ancestor. Ancestral Pen. Ancestral piece. The girl next Door
