like lovers in the darkroom
this forbidden venture
that hid us from the world we lived
and placed us in a time uncertain
that will seem all but a dream to us
your skin felt my bare hands
your shape so familiar
if I were blind you could not elude me
being this close to you
eros; god of love himself
did not approve of this
and sent the kiss sickness
leaving us faintly ill
torching every desire
I had for you
and then I saw you better in your shadows
than in your sun lit round face
and the beauty in you faded
everyday until you became my equal
and then faded into just anybody
till never again I could rise
