shut the door with tender gaze
on their sleeping forms at rest excellent opening that feels quite serene
the sun is setting cliché
god is dead
and i am here with you o love cliché
in this mighty nothingness feels too poetical and forced
where history has never trod
where flowers died out long ago
and where i hold you on this hill for me, this verse feels like it's trying to hard but not quite succeeding at giving a decent image
your body is the only time
your penis sunlight on a stone an unusual metaphor to say the least, sorry jack but it made me laugh which a love poem should;d do...not this way at least.
each breast a book with no writing
down which i trace my open hand
the sun is setting
god is dead
i killed him and replaced him with you this verse feels like filler.
i have kissed goodnight my dreams
so i can dream with you
i liked the repetition of the last to lines but for me it needs a good strong edit. jmo
thanks for the read jack
