Just that

Just crystals breaking

on an ancient floor,

just sounds of lust

still present somewhere,

echoes of a love story

narrated by old shadows,

names gained and lost,

dying roses in stale water,

witnesses in a vase-

Just an episode in a book,

words already fading,

still scented with sex,

Just a fierce passion

refusing to die calmy

among broken glasses..

Your poetry is vivid, succulent, beautifully scented with haunting emotions - rather touching really.
