tell me your secrets
when you've reached that point of trust
and i'll tell you mine
-----
past love was to me
like aversion therapy
it ended in hurt
-----
do you think of me
as much as i think of you
think of me at all
-----
first of all be free
for i will only bind you
with your own wishes
-----
i've loved love so much
yet love's only brought me pain
stolen life's laughter
-----
busy loving bee
visits favorite flowers
sips at my poems
-----
tongue turns words over
unfolding inner secrets
tasting their meanings
-----
asked for a picture
so you sent me poetry
kept next to my heart
-----
white whispers falling
tickling stark naked tree limbs
voyeur moon watching
-----
shadows of the moon
wave of hair a curve of cheek
silver mystery
