Summary: A simple poem about Dickon's feelings for Mary. Oneshot.
Chasing you is like catching rainbows
And falling stars with your bare hands…
Impossible yet exhilarating.
My arms are raised now
Trying to catch a piece of starlight
So I could feel it's cool round pebble shape
In the palm of my hand and fashion it
Into a necklace for you to wear.
I am fumbling with words in my mouth
But what I wish to express is so complex
A tangle of feelings and emotions
Tlat can only be made up with kisses
On your bare skin and little shudders of pleasure
As our desire only grows for each other
lying on a bed of rose petals…
I imagine tasting your lips again,
Your touch is gentle as you stroke back
a lock of trousled hair and kiss my fingertips.
Do you remember me still
while in your husband's bed?
Do you remember the glorious red roses
of our garden?
And how I held you up against the wall
and your hands traced the belt of my waist?
Chasing you is like catching rainbows
And falling stars with your bare hands…
Once you've caught one you never want to let it go.
