Sweet flavored grape whine kisses my soft lips,
flowing from my silver chamber flask.
Tightly grasping my heart shaped pendent around my neck,
a depressing film plays on my television screen.
Deeply scented candles burning to the end of the wick.
The trinket you gave me the day before you passed,
lays peacefully upon my armoire.
I thrust my body onto the bed screaming for you
your mettle sprit rests in satin sheets.
A pigeon observes us from my window’s seal.
