Salty Sorrows

Let salty sorrows
Leave those closing eyes
Roll down your cheeks
And stop a wee bit
at your lips.

Let it remind you
How kisses followed
This same love trail
So many times
eons ago.

Let fingers clutch
That soft home of love
Where your throbs
Still skip a beat
at a name.

Let it remind you
How a tameless storm
Rode two bare peaks
And a valley amid
on that bed.

Let this cold night
Bring you back again
To an old fireplace
When a world is
now asleep.

Let it remind you
How two burning souls
Made songs all night
Under blankets of
two bodies.
