Pastel lit skies that give way To warm orange glows And a white hue that surrounds the darkening trees. A mirrored reflection in the River Tone Idly passing by.

Leaving the comforts of a solaced blanketed bed Enrobed with hope and romance for the day ahead Taking inspiration once more to do as a butterfly does For I once was that beautiful winged creature, all aflutter.

Laying entwinned in one another’s tender embrace In a caliginous room Enveloped by a heady smell of vanilla coming from within a burner An irenic scene to a witness’s eye.

Laying entwined with one another On a cold tiled floor Catching our breaths In the haziness Of animalistic desires and passion A cold sweat mixed with a hot fluster From activity. The smoke from your cigarette still lingering in the air Just as my desire and need of you Once again, does. The want to … Continue reading The Conservatory
