The Woman of My Dreams

Eyes like dark spotted diamonds,
Lips like a painter’s art
Hairs, united in little knots,
Her voice was the checkmate.
She’s pleasant on the outside
but smeared on the inside:
A childhood of trauma,
A life time of depression.
Yet, she seemed to be:
the evening to my day,
the doorway to my home,
the potter to my clay,
the Yin to my Yang…
I hope this time
would be the time
I don’t get to chase shadows
But hold closely
underneath my restful breath,
the woman of my dreams.
