MY Ex

She bathes in elegance -
Leaves you lusting after a glance.
Beauty, compared to her, is an understatement -
for she embodies entertainment.

Hers are lips sweeter than a nectar...
softer than the clay of a porter.
Her smile, like fire, burns within...
arousing feelings so tempting like sin.
Her breasts upon her chest are like grapes from Babylon
with nipples so firm it beckons my cold mouth to carry-on...
Her body is as fine as a painting on a King's wall.

I'm plagued with memories of our bodies soaked in water...
glued together in passion, like nail on a finger.
My sad mind bemoans her lovely image.
Her words to me are like light to darkness...
rendering me weak and powerless.

With her, time flew like a loose kite.
When daylight took over from dark night,
all bliss, in a flash, took flight,
for like wax on a candle, she melted away...
putting an end to our foreplay.
She remains till now a memory mixed with a cock's crow.
Though I woke from this solemn dream,
the feeling of loss, within me, still grows.
