Cocktail of Chemicals

"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it..."  E.E. Cummings


It's another night... I open the  curtains
my mistress is hidden in moonlit meadows.
vastness of space inked in her fingerprints
flows in fantasy, filling a familiar fragrance.

I am no longer alone, a sea of passion tides
smear the stillness of a sedated sandy shore, 
with the moon blushing in lustful lovelight
It's a cocktail of chemicals, cordless control.

a Ferris Wheel spinning forever in frolic 
latitude of love lost in longitude of life.
hope and reality swirl in dizzy dreams 
searching Spring secrets in September skies.

A butterfly had once asked it's wildflower
Darling dear, Will you please forget me? 
It's  twenty years in tapestry of time...
You have taken me with you, there's no me.
