[poetry]: Early Morning Reflections
by Midnight on May.18, 2011, under Poetry, Poetry/Fiction Workshop, Pointy Leaves Literary Salon
I long to brush away
sun sutured red hair,
to trace dots
on unsheathed shoulders,
to kiss a bare blade,
and hear a soft sigh
or breathless intake of air.
As morning comes I would awake
still dreaming, a carnival
blurr like early morning
reflections across the lake;
I crave to finger beneath,
to move aside a tangled mess
and reveal eyes that stare back,
unimpeded and full of sleep.
I yearn to move closer, my palm
cradling cheek, nose to nose,
to breathe in breath
and finally feel the heat—
to rest in the moment of a dream.
