Memoir
You shall be
My pillow book
My brush
Will record
Each story
We create
Slowly
I master
Every pore
Your flesh
Will sing
With the
Tears, lust
And laughter
Shared
Exclamation points,
Ellipsis
I shall
Punctuate you
With care
Overlooking
Naught
Each mark
I leave
Every stroke
I make
Indelible
Bisous,
Léa
Lovely, sensual and intimate, this is beautifully written, Lea, capturing the desires in a delightful artistry! : )
Cynthia, thank you for your kind words. Now if I could only capture the beauty around me with a camera as you do…
haha…laughing at the gorman quote and reading your piece now.. hmmm nice…delicious and sensual write..def. love that moments of lust…smiles
You would really enjoy meeting “gorman” he is an “adopted” brother, poet, author and character! The quote is the final line in one of his poems.
I love this; so intimate, I barely dare to touch it, it’s so delicate 🙂

Thank you so much Christine. A Pillow Book is such a delicate thing and not being Asian, I wanted to capture that. 🙂
