craving sunshine

avec azure eyes staring out from the shadows of a
gray cemetery
she puffs from her cigarette &
waits for a better feeling---
all decked out in a long elegant black dress &
long black boots with many laces up under,
her gothic beauty walks with the darkness &
it always has---
the long drag from the cigarette paces itself between
lush lips bathed in black lipstick &
amidst her whole aura
she commands attention
even when no one is around---
the long soft black strands of her hair
hang beautifully in front of her gorgeous eyes traced in black
eyeliner,
staring out &
yet, something is missing,
for today,
even she craves sunshine---
her bosoms heave in a large sigh,
thrust out from behind the tight upper part of the dress &
her need for the solar rays beaming down on her
soft milky pale skin
is obvious to her alone,
although,
she'd tell no one if they asked.
