Not The Way It Was
The color is wrong,
not the way I remember
on that day. I was
all over you, hot
and lively, I am sure that's right
and the way you stayed
a force all tangled
with me, touch for touch and breath
for honeyed hot breath,
I've no question there
but the light was different
and the hues, more red.

DeleteWell, don't most good memories take on a golden light?
ReplyDeleteThe awkward colours got to me too!:)
ReplyDeleteSome memories fade - but not those of red hot passion...

Honeyed-hot little poem!
ReplyDeleteHard to tell with your eyes closed. Nice!
ReplyDeleteSo in the middle of all that heat, sometimes my eyes are not closed.
