Though my vision is blurred, I saw him clearly that night. (A very brief memory) |
prompt: I wanted you to stay with me forever. In a memory, I got my wish. Forever This Way This memory stayed with me, though you did not Everything about it. I kept you this way. I squinted at the horizontal patterns of light casted by the blinds I was jelous They wrapped themselves around you. They kissed without you stirring Closer than I could get, still I tried. I motioned for you in the stream of sheets Now we both were held behind the bars of light But, it was you who kept me captive. I needed to take you in I sent my fingers out for warm brown blurr They played and danced along the zebra-like stripes collecting every stroke of the moment To this day they paint across the canvas of my mind. Still, touch was not enough if i were going to prove later, against my memory, that I witnessed us this way. My lids tightened and my eyes strained Glasses would be a crime now. I drew nearer, discovering the image of you as the beautiful obscure came into focus MY GOD! Thank you for this much vision! Though it took me coming within a breathes travel of your neck I wouldn't want to be further from you. That night my kisses spoke a prayer my words could not They pleaded you to stay forever. In this way you will. |
