Apple- eye lenses
Vermillion skin
Cotton-laced fingers
Thy brothel of my heart
Succulent and placid
Tranquillity sits on your lips
Petunia dabbing swollen blues
Swirling around! Swirling around!
In a loop of adultery
Bomb-shell gaze
Cherry-kissed lips
Rectangular laughter
I call you my eve
Ah! I ate the forbidden fruit
Fruit of lust and love
Like a rosemary tossed on the torso
I remembered the austere nights
Shooting flick of the moonlight
Like Ariel cupping the celestial moon in her hands
Phantasmal dream
Thread-like fringes
I call you my tapestry of heart.
Crimson walls gradually crumble,
Behold it just right around the corners
I’m about to fade!
Silhouette of my perfect being
Is temptations are my intrinsic needs?
