Velvet
Under an orange sky
I seek to fathom a feeling.
It was thick
like velvet petals
circling my cosmos,
Hovering over
and underneath.
Two souls
frozen within its framework.
Fingers intertwined
in another space in time
The warmth causes a stir
too elusive to define
but genuine enough
to pursue.
The spark goes out
in salient release
There it is
ebbing towards water,
calming the tide
and I try
to fathom a feeling
beneath a sheer wave
of constellations...
