My love,
strip the viridian
edges of my canvas,
pull forth the black with
your brush, soothe my
heart with grey,
when we fall together
upon the hillside
overlooking the city of trees and
I cast my line into the wellspring
of unease that bubbles forth
every night at dusk,
rend me with your fingertips,
like a painting discarded,
kindle hope with a
kiss
