Captivates me
Tempting me out into the
Embracing space
Naked supple limbs
Hide behind ranks
Of overlapping armour links
Green leaves leave no chinks
For light to slink away, wasted.
The whites of your eyes
Clear and stark
Against those black ovals,
So dark
You have entranced me into the open
And here I stand swaying
Petrified. Euphoria
Dies with the setting sun
And that hardening confidence,
That was so clean and strong
Has crumbled
Away
To leave a soft, dank,
Arrogance
Distressed by desolate winter
Circles of thought spiral away
Fluttering as I fritter away my time
Stripping me, stiff and splintered
Teased by the whispering wind,
As I flail to catch lost seconds
This desperation disrobes me
Revealing,
oval by bright oval,
Your name Carved deep
