Analysis of Languages of Love
Her burning lips
taste his thirsty dreams
like raindrops
resurrect roses
wilting
in the cactus sun.
Twin diamonds
mirroring memories
humming those sugar cube songs
left unsung
Sipping syllables
and swapping secrets
thru sacred psalms
spoken in smiles
building sanctuaries with
languages of love.
