If we
If we had made it
Beyond the fleeting few days
Like a lightly scented cool breeze
Initial euphoria, strong like whiskey
Down a gullet used to wine
Pale rose,
Where we breathed in love
Lost in clouds, white and serene
Like your brown brow, uncreased and smooth
If we had made it beyond those days
We would have broken up by now
And have been breaking in
New faces.

I like the strength of your ruthlessness. For me, it seems like falling upon the sword before the sword is wielded against you, a death wish either way. It is very compelling, and always wrapped in fluent, evocative imagery. Keep writing.
