Behind me

She is behind me now.
I hold you, whisper
love words, yet
lifting my gaze
from one more kiss
her azure eyes I see.

The world is plain
within these walls.
Her golden hair
draws my thoughts
to vibrant lands.
And I bend to kiss you.

    Romantic yet said...I read it as a love once had but never forgotten, even with a new one at hand...beautiful imagery.
