Take a look.
I am still in love with you
And so I must leave you.
With any luck
I’ll forget your face
The sensuous, inviting smile,
Shallow, lovely, haunting cheeks,
Eyes taking me in as I take them,
The brows rising
In arches yearning,
“Are you pleased?”
Oh, my love, Always.
Could I be less?
The few seconds of connection
Steal so suddenly,
Savored so desperately.
You remove your glance
Too quickly. I am left with
A tiny arrow in me.
I leave it there
Until it dissolves, someday,
With all the others.
Returning to remember them
Each time as they become dull.
Will they ever be gone?
When I am, will I forget
The painful points
Of half platonic treats
And wonder how you are?
Still alive?
In the same place?
A grandmother yet?
A wife and lover?
Will I ever see you again
To catch more tiny arrows?
Or touch your brows and cheeks
And kiss your smile?
And so I must leave you.
With any luck
I’ll forget your face
The sensuous, inviting smile,
Shallow, lovely, haunting cheeks,
Eyes taking me in as I take them,
The brows rising
In arches yearning,
“Are you pleased?”
Oh, my love, Always.
Could I be less?
The few seconds of connection
Steal so suddenly,
Savored so desperately.
You remove your glance
Too quickly. I am left with
A tiny arrow in me.

Until it dissolves, someday,
With all the others.
