Deceitful Flashes

A tale of lovers seemed

flawless between flashes,

but not all angles.


Posing on the blood carpet

 reminded them of recurring puncture wounds,

as they became one warped  

In the intoxicating light.


With stars above them,

they had achieved privacy.

The cleansing midnight air

 filled the leather seats, and

what had seemed like a flash

turned into hours.


Hours of being true,

being what they couldn't be in the glimpses of flashes,

being what only solitude could be.


Warped in the sheets they

release the residue

and lay to rest in the angles
