Remembering An Orange Room

Don’t ask me for how long,
I’m not sure these days ..
But for a while at least,
we lived, we ate,
we slept, breathed and we
made out in a small
orange room, that glowed
by the ocean,
at both ends, of those long
summer days ..
But then, all our shadows
became darker,
and without any warning
they came in off
our mountain and covertly
stole your last breath
and took all my sunbeams away ..
