Listless is desire
for the patterned skin
on offering.
His arm it haunts
her mental hues
and heart-sung blues.
Brooding over thwarted dreams,
of end-all love,
of fool-proof seams,
while shedding layered condiments
of woven years.
Hope thrashes violently
and deep within
she smothers it,
then lets it float,
declaring comfort on its boat.
A syntax love
is pixel perfect -
giving birth to plea’s
that he
erupt and squeeze her.
