My Salome, My Late Salome by Danny Sillada

how can i tame my soul
from despairing

the scent on your pillow
disappearing

my heart is dead
my arms are cold

colder
than your timeless sleep:

how can i bring you back
my beloved!

Perfect from beginning to end.

This poem knocked my socks off.

Good to see your work again Danny.

So romantic.

Enjoyed this one immensely, Danny, even for the tinge of sadness it was laced with.

Enjoyed.
