Kim V. Poetry

I adorn myself in nothing but
Shadows & dreams
And wait patiently
For your rose-scented bite.

Because your lips
Taste of pomegranates
And a forbidden Eden,
I’ve long sought to find.

Save me from myself
And lay me in a bed
Of dahlias and butterflies.

And let my pulse beat
Beneath your hand,
Until my unforgiven sins
Are made clean.

For I have been on the run for too long
And want to see your face
In the night sky, above.
