Sketch

Quickly etching on your skin
My brown eyes draw a map
of your rosy cheeks
and the slopes of your face
quickly becoming my favorite place

words carry easy
upon the weight of perfumed air
The past is forgotten
but I am sworn to carry out
a drought my lips have idly wrought
because having you is what they always sought

I give into display
Vain carries the thoughts of may
and spring flowers will learn to bloom
As long as I am promised
to see you soon

Given a riddle
of what unlocks my heart
maybe a spark
be my four leaf clover
im all out of excuses
and ready to dive in
....but could I bring with me
those etchings of your skin?
--------------------------------------------
Reservation crumbles my castle
where I longingly peered out
from my tower of jade
rose colored windows
shatter and bleed
And I am left
with so much to need

Thy kingdom come
I will be scared
Always the martyr
Never been cared
The only diamonds left
to sparkle
are your eyes
glowing with pride
lowering the gates
as I kneel and confide

Iron stone forged from belief
but a shadow of what one man
could once concieve
I submit myself
and come along
before more damage is done
the battle is over
my heart
you have won
