a short poem

 
Dawn

Dawn comes blithe yet broken,
Quartered by an imposing noise.
A redirection of sonic forces
Left in darkness for far too long.
The red mutation, blasting furnace,
Raping songs man’s never sung,
Splinters glass and human learning,
Canonizing the first angel’s fall.
Topaz waves in emerald seas,
Flood the mind with a gemstone’s sheen.
The ebbing flow erodes the soul,
But morning comes despite the song.

The couch creaked as I leaned back into his arms. Gently, he pulled me closer yet and settled my torso against his. I tried to conceal the shiver that ran up my spine as his arms snaked their way around me.
A sigh escaped his tantilizing lips as he laid his head on mine, and he began rubbing his thumb against mine.
"See, this is was I was talking about before. We're ...
