My last sight






I saw you cuddled up in the quilt that night,
into the world of dreams you had taken flight.

You seemed to hold the pillow in a tight grip,
countenanced a smile, which lurked on your lips.

Strewn on your face were a few strands of hair,
you seemed to sweat, maybe it was the humid air.

The refulgence of your cheeks; Oh! so bright,
filled the darkness within me with pure light.

I saw your curves, your grace and poise,
as you lay there unaware, spreading joys.

I saw you cuddled up in the quilt that night,
wishing before death do me, that be my last sight

  1. Hmmm... Undying love. The damsel dearest lying unawares of her beholders love... Probably a tad insecure. Comforted by clinging on to a pillow...

    Vivid imagery... Very.

    Peace.

  7. Yep... That was one way I interpreted those lines, Thot as much that you didn't intend to, but well that's the beauty of any composition.

    One can never guess the extent and the depth to which the writer would have reached. We can only guess.

    Have a nice day.

    Peace.
