Description ----

I was yours;
you, mine.
The river reflected our ultraviolet passion.
I indulged for too long
and was branded
red and warmed -
yet unsatisfied.

Moses? MOSES?!

No respect!



Did you change something else? Did it say the river reflected before?

Reflected
indulged
branded
warmed
unsatisfied

I LOVE the alliteration. Something I tried myself with -ing.

I don't quite understand the significance of 'the river' there being no other references to water or rivers or streams.

The beginning statement and ending question could be omitted IMO and by their omission strengthen the piece.

You still doing it. I wish I wrote as much as you did, but my writing comes from love, frustration or pain . . . much like yours seem to. If your writing is any indication you are on a constant rollercoaster between these states. Very somber and moving in any case.

I used to wonder why we [re: I] don't write so-called happy pieces. Now I know why. They're BORING!

Oh, but you are mistaken I have written two "happy" pieces. the river is there for two reasons; one, it was actually the setting we were at and two, it, as it says, our reflection in the river was what i was gazing at.

AHA!

That blew right past me!

See . . . I was wondering what the reflection was referring to. When I didn't deduce anything . . . reflective I settled on a mental reflection a memory.

I defer to your superior talent.

That's gorgeous, I love that you added the two lines above and below the poem. Like an aftertaste and an hors d'ourve(Sp?) at a dinner. Deliciously complicated poem that caught my attention and had me reading it twice at least.
Well done darlin'

I luv this! A poem about guys sharing a moment with a girl and stealing here everything as we would steal someones virginity and then depart leaving a concerned female only to wonder and to begin understanding the nature of a playa.
Excellent Miss! I thirst for more of your poetry.

almost =] i think you'd catch it if you erase your preconception that this is male-female. you'd catch the tone better if you envision female-female

thank you, i appreciate it.
