Aperture and Shutter

RAKERR 1991 (Mobile AL)

Free verse
Apeture and Shutter

let me light your heart
i can give you what you need
but you’ll have to close your eyes
and let me freely lead

let me be your aperture
flames around those cheeks
 side by side
Placed like tea lights around your face
When you close your eyes
Mine shutter
Only to open up and see all the beautiful things that lie dormant in yours

Timothy Rocker aka RAKERR

About this poem

Two twin flams from different planets runner and chaser endlessly and fearlessly taking the leap of faith without knowing each other location in the end finding each other under there own closed eyelids!
