Phillip



"Phillip"


The world was hushed

Shadowed from the pierce of sun
They lay contented
Shaping to the couch
Ignoring the could have been

Whispered about now and tomorrow

He her daring pursuer
She his taunting sweetness
Licking away all his pain
His golden girl

Together they chased away the hurt
No one could imagine
Years of hunger and secrets led them here
To the ends of the earth
Forever within each other’s touch
Knowing they would betray one another

What happiness last spread its wings within his thoughts
None shall ever know

She was his hard candy hell dust
But now that he is gone
Their serendipity withered and ash
She is sure to find another lover
