So this question of love
Still lingers in her lips-
Do you still love me?
I raise my head, look straight
Into her eyes to smother
That blue page of her longing.
I tell her, upon your desires
There's still a door of opportunity-
The light in the dark exuding
A lingering scent of our past.
But memories like my mother's scent
Begins with you, as breath of dawn,
Words nurtured by blooms of hope;
Touch this hope like a petal
Lest it withers in your palms;
Perhaps I will follow you, love of mine,
Take me the whole distance home.
