Poem

[lavenderspark]

Surrounded in dreams, desire.
The fire of our embrace slowly devouring me.

Morning wakes me.
You are lost, a ghost.
Your kiss warm on my lips.

I long for your face.
I can feel your hands.
My heart is haunted.

I will be a prisoner of sleep,
to dream for eternity for you.



I start by pulling words from the box (upper right in the picture) and laying them all out. I just pick anything that seems to call out to me.


Then I try to assemble something coherent. I only use words that I have a magnet for. Every single word I use has to be in the set. If I don't have it, I have to think of a different way to say the same thing.


As I was typing it up, I flipped around a couple lines. Makes more sense this way.
