Like melted dark chocolate and lips of rose
(ˇ)
One glance
time falls away
our youth swirls memories
between us
lush flashbacks
take us there
when all we knew
burned the midnight sun.
(ˇˇ)
His charisma
aged like fine wine
weakening resolve
{low cleansing breaths
stealthily sucked-in}
piercing sable eyes,
were velvet warmth always burned
a melted dark chocolate gaze
unrepentantly pours over
purposely pausing
on my lips
just a few extra seconds
proof he remembers
exactly
how I taste.
(ˇˇˇ)
Laughs come easy
our currency of avoidance
calms nerves
as we nurse good bourbon
uncertain
where the burn
burns most
Hands make their way
from cool glass
to sultry feathered strokes
of redemption
weaving together
past and present
into a future
just for tonight.

Thanks for the lovely sentiments, Tim
I think maybe my title is coming across incorrectly... the death by chocolate refers to the weakness I have for this person's eye color and not the guilty pleasure of actual chocolate but I guess it's one in the same, essentially... lol... haha.
Oh well you win some you lose some!
(I'm partial to dark chocolate and especially like dark chocolate Kit Kats... ohh yum!)
Much obliged for everything.

Wonderful synesthetic work of art.
I love the phrases: "lush flashbacks" and 'feathered strokes of redemption",
and the sensation of bourbon burning.
Thank you.

I like the easiness of following along with this. Like a walk through an uncrowded, cobblestoned street. Where memories give and take with the new ones.
Some things shouldn't be a struggle. And your descriptive write confirms that.
Wonderful words, Blue.

Dear BV,
I agree with Sandals there is such a sultry velvety lush feel to this write. Made me feel kind of swoon-y. I also admit all I could visualize was one of those chocolate fountains! I’ve only ever seen them but I’d like to try swiping strawberries through them or marshmallows!!
Yeah yeah, the poem itself is marvelous. Dreamy guys and such but chocolate and chocolate fountains…😵💫 take me to your leader! (Great write. 😊x)

Re: Re. Like melted dark chocolate and lips of rose
Hey there, lady
Let me just say that I've had the pleasure of partaking in numerous chocolate fountains over the years. From Birthdays to Christmas to Weddings ... The concept is great, in actual functioning practice it usually turns into a delicious looking contaminated germ generator!! At any given time you can look over and see at least one to two little kids with their hands and mouths just Willy Wonka-style covered in chocolate, eating right out of it!! And the next thing you hear is their names spat out like venom between clenched teeth and huge crying screams as their parent(s) drag them away in mortification! Classic party move... like the electric slide!! ... hahaha! I like watching the faces as everyone realizes all those germs are now just getting recycled around and around and around in the fountain.... lmao!!! 😳 Unless your first in line to eat hardy from it then take heed!!
*I myself like chocolate covered pineapple as well as chocolate covered pretzels!! Yum!!
Right now that sounds better than what any dark brown eyes could make me feel!! haha... Oh how those priorities change as we get older 😏
Thank you for the kind words and for finding some worth within this piece. It was quickly put together and sometimes it's hard for me to see the forest for the trees when it comes to the feel of a poem and how I've written it vs how it goes over in being perceived.
I always immensely value your thoughts.....
and look forward to the giggles 🤭.
You didn't disappoint!
Loads of love and respect,

Re: Re. Like melted dark chocolate and lips of rose
Hey you :)
Yesss... the warmth of deep soulfulness and getting lost in the expressiveness... ohh sigh. I too, have blue eyes but I don't discriminate!! 😂 . lol..
I love them all.. Maybe It's more so about the who than the color. I know that it's just a draw for me... period. Hands, eyes, voice. If there's a trifecta that I'm a total goner!! hahaha.
I'm glad you felt some delight while reading, dear Sms. I'm delighted with your generous feedback and the kind list add..... loads of thanks.
Made my morning to see you visit 🦋
Hope all is well across the pond ✨
I'm still nursing my team's hard loss of the Stanley Cup last night... losing in game 6 was a killer, so today is a saddder day than usual! The only bad part about being a hockey fan but I can't complain it would have been our third year in a row winning The Cup so it's not the worst loss ever...
Anyway... we're all taking it in, in my city. You can almost feel the collective disappointment... Awww!
There's always next season!
Have a great day!

Chapters or sections in poetry, immediately Eliot comes to mind.
Each set reroutes, indulges, or fractals from a different perspective, level, angle of Incidence.
The song seemed long standing, the poem seemed one night standing.
Each section ratcheted up the energy, folding it like Damascus steel.
The final made a deep commitment, regardless of the time....and that, for me, gathered the whole into synchronicity.
While there, if it's for 5 minutes, 5 days, 5 years, or 5 decades....the energy should be building. What would be the reasoning behind burying yourself in a relationship and not fully engaging?
The present becomes eternal in the passion of the moment.
I only eat 90% or higher chocolate. My niece says I eat dirt. My favorite is dark chocolate and almonds. Had it today.
Deep flavors, scents, touch, taste, are all indicative of kissing that ends in sweating grasps and succulent sensations. Kissing should be a fucking olympic event. It takes the desire to melt like chocolate smudged on the skin in a tintinabulation of stimulations.
Looking into someone's eyes like that should sear the heart with an aching pain to see, up close and personal.

RT, RT....
Just when I think you forgot about me.... ;)
I'm going with the idea that somewhere deep down you knew that I was very much needing a double dose of your keen wisdom and thoughtful insight! I'm beyond glad too, because you've left me genuinely smiling the day after my city's hockey team just lost the Stanley Cup. Yes, I'm a hockey fan. Big hockey fan. Big Tampa Bay Lightning fan. That's the only sport I follow.... and this loss was brutal... so, thanks for these unbelievably coveted comments.
*I am gonna go ahead and bask in that for a bit!
Ahhh.... it's lovely. Like floating in the shady spots of the pool!*
Yes... you very much got the gist. and probably explained it way more beautifully than my poem...
I fully enjoy breaking down my poems into sets of three or more... I think my brain works better with creative inspiration when I can compartmentalize a thought but not really use minimalism. A thought reduction, if you will... making my thoughts more pungent.
Parts of the poem sort of feel like I could have been in a conversation over several days but yes the majority of it was a marvelous get together after significant time had gone by for each of us.
Okay, I feel like I totally have to steal that 'folding it like Damascus steel' line... badass imagery!!
In my head it was like climbing a ladder and finding different landings, trying to make it to the top... Yes, not nearly as sexy!..;p
Part three is sort of paying tribute to something that we both had that was once so very beautiful but got irrevocably fucked up by inexperienced youth, anger, unresolved relationship issues, low self esteem .. take your pick. However, there's not many people who you can pick right back up with, without missing a beat. Except beyond that even, because it's even better now for the two of them , with all that was bad and difficult before being gone in their youth... having it disappear.
You said the million dollar phrase and the eye rolling, toe curling truth... "The present becomes eternal in the passion of the moment!"
Absolutely.
Wow 90% is BITTER... You are completely enthralling!! My sweet spot is 65-80% I love it with almonds too... but especially if it's salted... Ohh swoon...
Your last two points are too too good they're better than dark chocolate and I'll be elaborating upon those soon....
to be cont'd.
Thank you.
You made my day

Your passionate imagery danced around me like sugar plum fairies. Each sensual arson led to another until my heart beat to the tune of the spell you cast on me. Envisioning the chocolate gaze and the vision splendid that made its way into the pores of my being made for a drunken night of poetry. Truly this is wonderful. And honestly, I enjoyed every living breathing word you gave birth to.
