A slash of red 

A flash of green,

A canvas white

Black lines to dream

 

I stare transfixed , drawn to your face

Close to you now , my heart in race

Butterfly eyes

Caught in the wind

Give up secrets to all that’s sinned

 

Never alone with your smile,

Your look of beguile

Catching me if I fall

Coming if I call

 

Rescuing me from the edge

Holding me together on the ledge

With silken threads, wrapped in my soul

Protect me with the warmth that you hold.

 

Looking to you now, closing my eyes

Floating up through skies

Laden with hope , such a steep slope

Slipping  back unable to cope.

 

Leaning forward, taste of red,

Through half closed eyes,

A flash of green,

Outline of a canvas white.

Goodnight my love goodnight.
