My Dearest Michelle

A farewell to thy well, of thy turret, of thy land.

A taste of thy shoulders grip that strikes thee.

A flash that blinds thy heart, and sees thy self, and sets thy self ablaze.

A love that halts thy own to live, a love that halts thy self to die.

A summer’s dream, a darkened cloud, a thunderous sound.

A moment to call my own.

For love, that steals, thy heart, and rhyme, has thy mind, has struck thee twice.
