Poly Promises -- form poetry Kyrielle

Poly Promises

Kiss my lips, turn and walk away
I like to see you come and go
Waiting until next we can play
Together separate made one

Absence breeds fondness of the heart
When I see you, my love does grow
It hurts when we're too long apart
Together separate made one

I with mine as you are with yours
I care for them more than you know
Sometimes shaken to both our cores
Together separate made one

Love given life with every breath
Words, touch, kiss: lovers love does sow
Loving each other until death
Together separate made one
