my reflection in darkness
anticipated a long night that’s starting
cannot unfocused my stare
the short hand reaches ten
scattered like my abandon things
so as my thoughts waiting to be cleared
the candle cries, its flames danced
illuminating with my labored breathing
I am getting lonely until I realized Ive got company
fresh, good looking, tempting me to death
should I consume these godlike goodness?
My heart sank with an unexpected hunger
how can I hurt?
here lay nature, unprotected
with an innocent yellow colored tenderness
like a shipwrecked, grounded in the sand
the citrus charm behind full of doubt
cannot protest nor move
in the presence of the rebellious reddish poison
they are building their undefeated confidence
with me, they bathe in shadow
yet beauty remains
even if their lives
sentenced in the most clever way
what a blessed courage, this I admire
in a wooden platform I let them rest
the banana, apple and orange
will wait until morning.
