You are my mirage,
flesh and blood
mere flecks of color
on my brush;
to pour my painted lips on yours,
your visage I should crush.
Camouflage
a puerile penchant
your enigma
sparks in me;
seductive as the rose
from a palette on my knee.
You have assuaged
an empty victory,
but what may I command,
when the carnage left behind
has only heightened my demand
for your mirage.
Your voice shines through! Beautifully expressed.
