Missin' Nothin'
I remember the cold concrete beneath us.
The memory still cements us.
Early mornings with nothing to smile for,
never being paid above a table.
All I had to speak of
was covering you up,
covered in dirt n' oil.
I still hear me whispering,
"don't let me go"...
hoping no one hears me,
beggin' you to keep me safe
but only when we were alone.
Cigarettes and Love.
Whisky in plastic bottles.
I had nothing else to my name
but everything.

transactions compensated under the table; it's sordid & kinda sad.
blue images in your poem, that add up to heartbreak...

Gosh, how powerful your imagery is
it adds mightily to the punch of your verse!
Outstanding again my dear :)

Everything bare for all to see. no pretenses , no egos to weigh you down, a time that was pure.
