Caged Away (100 word poetry)

Tin Roof (@tamoja)

Tin Roof

As steady rain hits tin roof

steam hovers above pavement

wrapped only in each others skin

Sweat beads your brow

and my heart keeps time

We tangle under twilight

beneath that cool fan

feeling pulses race

and soft touches

while gentle murmurs

drown tapping rain

The whisper of your lips

lingers on warm moist skin

making memories

While pictures fade in corners

and flowers hang upside down

drying in remembrance

But we don't need those

My heart will always hold yours

your shadow kiss has soaked

deep below the surface

and into my soul

As steady rain hits tin roof
