The Art

Charcoal image a captive dream
Cold carved by nicotine fist
Lines are wedding dress white
In ashes etched frost kissed

Perhaps a precious moment seized
Shadows inked in frozen silence
An alabaster statue so composed
Obsidian lips razor kiss violence

Stone eyes stare into infinity
Marble flesh now weeping tears
Chalk lines frame undulating skin
An elaborate schema here disappears

Each paint stroke never decays
Perfection confined while ink reveals
Smokey shadows wedding dress white
This monochrome world silently steals

One last kiss in darkness
