Not Like This : Love Poetry

written by Poet : RedMarquee


Not Like This

night made silence cease
sighing here because
it won’t always exist
your arms enshrouding me

for a few minutes I can delay
possibly framing you is an advantage
in positive film next to me until
time doesn’t end

the way sentiments paint
sensitively hugging myself too
tears squeeze through
escaping on one leg
hopping and skipping one by one

the night remains companion
dearest new confidant
intensely enamored with you…
while this is a presence

horizontal bodies suspended
holding your arms in place
moving could postpone this hour
ruin the whole thing

precious contents
volunteering recall
desperately rolling over
before the blinds peek
spread hands lacing your face

turning to lines
sleeping infallibly
as the sun has it's way
this is all I get because
day break is betrayal and you go…

but not like this
