released behind black

velvet curtains now

far presence unseen

make up of shy

shame of not having known

you before diving into a peach

coloured pastel of ovals

barricade behind rows of seats

in a cloak of ordinary:

the peer pictures throwing

shooting stars banned look

imaginary wall of stage unseen

in shadows you in lights

your face waiting in the mirrors

behind the scenes of costumes

my desire your foreign garment

underneath I know all over

your birthmarks quietly

stretching skin all my worries

where I am allowed to believe

in your hands here and now

only.
