Your gold head weighs on my chest,
just above my bosom
your wheat-like freckles shimmer under the lamps glow
Your green eyes, slits of wet lime
that sometimes paled into silver disguise.
Amber eyelashes fanning shadows upon your cheeks
Your ruby heart drumming beneath
your chest of rich fur
Your crimson mouth; triangular but full,
interlocked perfectly with mine
their fullness adorning mine.
Your thin hair flopped languidly,
my hands traced their waves, tugging and curling at its irregularity.
Your smile, your smile, your smile
Stretched to its fullness; a wide invitation that
changed your face and in an instance,
redefined smiles beauty.
Your smile, a moment in time
flashed like a gift only for me.
Now your treasures shall float out to sea
and I shall not be there to see
who else may cherish your smile
as a treasure in all of its own.
