Taking a chance?

  Steamy thoughts, lost, haunted,
dripped in beads and grey pearls,
caught on tentative puckered lips.
Eyes penetrate, the sheet glass plate,
lick and touch and feel,
the memory of salted dressed perfume.
All could be lost, by taking a chance,
drawn in and drawing closer again.
Assurances given in a safe havened scene,
floating dreamlike,
should I or shouldn't I,
that's the deal.

(c) Libithina

    a good poem, aye all could be lost by taking a chance, but at the same time, all could be found, different sides to a coin.
