Aperture and Shutter
Apeture and Shutter
let me light your heart
i can give you what you need
but you’ll have to close your eyes
and let me freely lead
let me be your aperture
flames around those cheeks
side by side
Placed like tea lights around your face
When you close your eyes
Mine shutter
Only to open up and see all the beautiful things that lie dormant in yours
Timothy Rocker aka RAKERR
About this poem
Two twin flams from different planets runner and chaser endlessly and fearlessly taking the leap of faith without knowing each other location in the end finding each other under there own closed eyelids!
