a missing link



A link is gone, and with it, spacious words ....  
that filled the gap between us and disintegrated.  
Hung for so long untouched ...  
words never deceive ...  
but the mind has more than two meanings  
jester-ed from your eyes ...  or so i thought,
that missing link, a passenger in caravans of soul
traveling east back home ...  

Breach if you need, but do not fade....  
ask yourself if you need me  
to watch you waltz in a satin black dress,  
in a barefooted swan dance mood ...
anticipating the final act to embrace you. 

what will happen if we kiss
naked without makeup?  
face me for a moment,  
or walk away
from the thirsty temptation,
of a drug-laced kiss... ?
the same dose you prescribed to me
a long time ago ...

we’re all mortal except
for the rosy kisses ...
the vessels of breath carrying it
step closer and see ...  
what will happen if we kiss ...?
Speak & break the damn ...
