Summer was... A night of frosted air, Claimed passions. A smothered desire to know your enemy. A feathered dust storm of blinding sand, dirt and specks. A rusty shack of unborn children. An old beaten mattress, with an old iron frame. A torn floral dress, singed with cigarette butts. A familiar smell, both sweet and sour. A tentative touch, light and heavy. A bruised hip, slapped wrist A love so sweet it could bear a fist. |
