Black And White

Black And White
A bright red umbrella
and you kissing me
until I wanted to melt,
across your body
like ice cream
dissolving on a hot sidewalk
on a scorching summer’s day.
That is what I remember.
Everything else
appears to me like a dream
in black and white.
The wings of our love’s promise
originated under that
colourful umbrella.
