There was another
blaze once
another fire,
a nameless night
when
bodies touched like static
and heat scalded more
than fire
sweat dropped like
molten wax
as I felt the wetness
of your tongue
caress my skin with songs softly sung
A cold wind chills my
bones now
were these those same
gusts
that once held such
cheer
when they carried your
smell
perfumed with
fragrance
earthy with our
love-making
and the breeze that
fanned your body
whispered tantalizing secrets to me
Twisted thoughts ask
the question
how do I burn my own
memories
can I place them on a
dying fire
and hope they turn to
dust
or will they return
like some ghost
once again to torment
and taunt
like another fire on a
nameless night?
