some other lover

Folder: 
first

everything's in bloom

in the sweltering june

with legs of vine

and pools of wine.

with the taste of summer

and some other lover.

 

you pulled me through fall

with your once daily calls,

speaking exquisitely of my smile.

but with deliberate denial

your love did expire,

exiling my drunken desire

for some other lover.

 

the night takes control 

of my heart-shaped hole

which you dug into my chest

as a means to lay rest

to the battle of lust

you left wriggling in the dust

to find some other lover.

 

after me there is no other.
