I see Us dying before e we’ve been born
A light that could have been
Dimming into nothingness
Darkness
One that dominates my senses
Stimulates my memory
To a time beneath the velvet skies
Under the canopy of glistening celestial diamonds
In my mind
The fragrance of your hair still plays coyly with my nostrils
The caress of your hands still tingle my skin
Like the sea breeze on a warm night
I can still feel the silkiness of your skin
The suppleness of your flesh
Your eyes still speak a truth beyond words
And your lips
Oh those lovely beckoning lips
Their cherry sweetness still remains unknown to me
Yet who says tt ever will be
For now it seems there is more than I can see
There remains too much unsaid
Too little told
Too much held back
A growing gap
An ‘Us’ that’s growing slowly cold

Ooh! I like your simple, powerful line "Dimming into Nothingness". I also like how you incorporated all our 5 senses (Sight, smell, hearing, touch and taste) into this one. It is an age-old trick which works in all creative writing. Well done.
@ NY, *plenty smiles and thumbs up*...thanks! I guess my inspiration was truly inspiring!
@ Abena, hi & welcome & thanks(?). :-) at you too!
