Moon Flower

 Moon Flower

 The stars in her eyes,
like luminous fireflies
caught in the net of
embellished emotions…

The pink of her cheeks,
like half bloomed lilies
capturing the twilight
in the tickling breeze….

The purple of her lips,
like half cut cherries
inviting the vibes of
the impending night…

The fire in her breath,
like erupting lava
ablaze in the darkness
of waiting nightmares…

She is lonely, wanting to
walk through the hot
highway that leads to
the stairway to heaven…

She is a moon flower,
and she is lonely…
please let her sleep
on the mattress of
her dreams…
