BATHTUB

When I play
The guitar
You speak
To me
With the truth
I lit 3 candles
As you took
A bath
I caressed
The strings
As if I was
Touching you
Every word
I sang
Was a kiss
Trying to
Penetrate your heart
From your lips
Came words
Of affection

ONCE AGAIN

We drove
In my old convertible
My right hand
Shifted from
Her knee
To the steering wheel
Back and forward
On the windshield
I saw how
She gave me back
My smile
When she made
Love to me

MAYDAY

I want to write
About you
I want to say
Something pleasing
With tenderness
Right now
My heart
Travels at
The speed of light
And I don’t know
How to fly

DRINK

I offered them
A glass of wine
And she was
The only one
That accepted
She agreed
To drink with me
More red
More blood
In our hearts
She drank fast
The sunrise
Arrived like
An aspirin

GREETING

You said hi
Your smile
Revealed bright pillars
Of youthfulness
Your red hair
A fire
In the forest

FATIGUED

We sat
At the park
Watching the
Children play
We were hangover
And looked
Like a strange couple
