"Maybe my words, are not as good, as those on the page, quoted on the lips, but they are, my words, my soul, my life, and they are how they are, quoted or not."- Exert from a poem of mine titled "My Words"

The light that shines the background
The glow upon your face
Your eyes a burning fire
Your arms my fingers trace

My lips of ripened cherries
Your hair of wheat grass gold
And deep in the dimming light
The secrets that we told

For in the dark with lust and love
Comes something just as deep
Whispered words and shinning eyes
And the memories I will always keep
