Hope of..

  Hope of a we is the slow

    flicker of a sea green

    candle which smells

      of clean soap and your

      sigh after making love..

  Hope of a we is too

    much biting my

    lips while I swallow

      my pride with my fourth

      cappuccino tonight..

  Hope of a we is

    searching for words

    to beg for your heart in

      the cinnamon dust whipped

      cream of my desire for you..

    Hope of a we is the salt

    of my need drawing

    damp sparkle trails

      as I dream of

      your gentle hands,

        tangled heart strings!

      in my hair

    as I kneel at your feet

          for the hope

            to become a We.
