i do not know what title to give this piece, maybe you can help me?

Very softly, his lips draped me in a crimson wreathe
And his tongue ladled poise for my coyness
Denude your white covering of black dust!
An air of freshness encircled him
And his white-hued humour
He stood tall
In his alluring composure
A perfectly tailored overcoat and
A timepiece
Charming looks for a gentleman
And his voice cast a fair pink shadow that lingered behind him
The hues of his persona made beautiful butterflies in my stomach
White and black, with his beautifying streaks of pink
Soon they all lay beside his evasive nature
Perfect architecture of skin and bones that became enclosed inside me
Running deep through concealed places
I wake up to lucid imaginations
But my hands are still stained clean white
The taste of black dust lingers on my lips
And I’m entwined in pink strings of passive addiction.

Sensual and unique in imagery - well penned, Ruthie. I especially like this line: "The hues of his persona made beautiful butterflies in my stomach..."

As for a title, many of the word combinations you included here could work (crimson wreath, lucid imaginations, passive addiction...)

This is very well written :) The words force the reader to invoke their imagination and delve themselves into the work.
I feel like although the story that the poem tells is complex, the title could be simple and pulled from within it. From first glance, "A Gentleman" he really seems to dominate the writing and aims the spotlight on him. But it could be about anything that he does, it invites the reader to seek to know more about this gentleman.

Your poem is very sensual, Ruthie. Many possible titles are contained in the lines of this poem. I do not like to suggest titles for other poets' creations. You have written a beautiful poem of elegant words, I think a title will come to you.
