I’ve never seen this side of you
sideways
from this angle you appear
aglow and unbridled
________
No longer a person
but a defined destination
sideways whispers
stirring and unabridged
________
Through shadows and moonbeams
your gaze never fails me
I’ve never seen such color
telling and unclouded
________
Your hand meets my waist
through silken sheets
and delighted sighs
aflame and unadorned
________
