Those Lips

So I wrote this little poem in a half hour for Laura. It could have been better, and its pretty corny, but I want to remember it. I think but of your lips This tenderness I tonight kissed Tonight my dreams are blissed And all because of this A girl I will much miss Until …

A Night Of Shame

I do not recall whom I wrote this poem about.

Beauty Within a Name

This was written for Kristina Zub. Clear as your eyes caught mine Heaven couldn’t be so fine Royalty within your smile Intrigued to you worthwhile Soft warmth from your part Tinkle deeply, pulse my heart Inspiration from your laugh Numbness would be to look back A precious aftermath

Une Fin Sombre
