DO NOT READ THIS until you've read ugly baby poemlings 4, 6, 7 and 8. (2 posts back)

Perhaps

The so familiar lines of you

I traced with my fingertips

Through the air

And I wonder

How your tongue purpled with wine

Would taste against the red on mine-

When your mind to pleasure strays

If it met mine, would you stay?

Could you be enough for me

If I would let you try to be…

Useless thoughts,

Left in the dark

Waiting quietly

Until my eyes, filled with adoration

Find (in yours) like declaration.

Crying Shame

(They say) I’m fine now

(But) my heart is still

(drowning in unshed tears)

(Tears) I’ve found (to be)

The (best or the only)

way to save our souls.

I started playing with parenthesizes-read it with and without them. 

Cool or gimmicky?
