The sunset piano

"One of those perfect moments"

I bled a song for you

when the sunset cried last night

it tasted like a strawberry daiquiri

it smelled like fresh cut watermelon

it whispered, like Cupid,

just before he let go

of another love-tainted arrow.

Pity I did not see you behind me

nor did I recognize the touch

of your warming hands -

I thought it was 

the last dying rays of sunlight.

All my clouds turned pomegranate red

my blushing karma

stealing the memory of that moment

and then

my song

found you.

This is so gloriously beautiful and bittersweet. Such a longing, and hopeful essence, filled with the colors and flavors of loving. Yes, a perfect moment in every way.
