He
lit a cigar and swam through rhinestone-dreams. They
cascaded,
ever into puddles, where temper fell sullen. We
polish
sadness, to settle storms, as wretched as the
Grinch.
Was it paradise, a night in Cancun, to ink a false
document?
We perish as empty, to struggle our focus, where
love
has spotted. He sketched a mural, a woman’s ideal,
to
perish softly. She knew for turmoil, to ignore a deep
abyss,
to cater to fancy. He spoke less, to puff more, headed
for
a parish. She treasured screams, to forge joy, ever a
contrast.
They parted stories, partial for incomplete, dividing
furniture.
The days would cry, featured in sorrows, a symbol
for
a sign. He felt for guilt, to crush for glass, a song of birds.
They
awoke for rain, the breath of friends, as careful as
freedom.
They learned to laugh, a portrait’s frame, as tender
a
new birth. He saw for wealth, his stature ran, plucking
grenades.
She felt for heart, a second glance, built through
fate.
She loves for soul, this air of love, a seed of faith. They
vowed
for skies—to love again, partial to doves.
