Cherry Petals
Lie still
So I may hear
Your heart beat in rhythm with mine
Be still
Your harrowed breathing
My touch to soothe your mind
Be still
Your racing thoughts
Reflected in amber eyes; I gaze
Lie still
Stiffened muscles
Under my fingertips, tracing bare skin soaked in a moon glaze
Be still
Your words of mumbled quality
Finger to your lips so you may savor my taste
Be still
My own racing, breaking heart
That lives, loves, and dies for you
Be still
My trembling frame
Kneeling by your side in a final goodbye
Be still
My blurred vision
Tears obscuring the moon soaked beauty that is you
Be still
My treacherous lips
Threatening to spill both truth and pain
Lie still
As I rise up and away
A last parting gaze spared your way
Be still
My trembling legs
Running from the scene of hearts betrayed
Be still
These tears that freely flow
Sobs choking the night of its ethereal silence
Be still
The pain in my heart and mind
Seizing my muscles and my breath
Lie still
As I fall to the earth that betrayed me
Brought to life the part of me that will always belong to him
Be still
This mind of mine
Torturing me with his seraphic voice
Lie still
Listening to the foot falls
Bringing about my death; swift as the silent winds
Rising
Warmth killing the chill of the night
Embraced
In the strong, bare arms of my left behind savior
Engulfed
In strength and pressed against a chest of smooth skin
A heart beating in tune with mine
Words whispered
My body shivers in joy and want
Lips meet
A taste so sweet
Almost to much to bear
Be still
Your worried, sad eyes
Moonlight gleaming in your tawny fires
Be still
Your thundering heart
Slowing under my touch
Lie still
Your body pillowed by high meadow grass
Caressed by moonlit fireflies; my fingers linger
Be still
Your sighs of love and pleasure
My body lying on yours
Lie still
As we bathe together in the forests luminosity and aromas
Entwined in embraces that dreams could not tell
Be still
As peaceful sleep knits itself into a blanket of incubus
Cloaking us in its ghostly warmth
Be still
The hush of the wind
Blowing cherry blossom petals from luminescent pink jasmine trees
Be still
Falling around us in a soft, tamed manner
Tickling my skin; shivering your sleeping embrace tightens
Be still
My hazy mind
Counting petals as they fall; a peaceful final thought
He loves me
He loves me not
He loves me…
