Gifted and Misused

The wind kisses your cheek
And carries your cologne
Down streets and alleys 
It doesn't belong. 
And bruises the bones
Of neighbors and clones 
And steals the souls 
Of forgotten trolls.

She dances and whispers 
Of British beauty
And wears scarves and scents 
Of a stranger's home. 

Unseen by mirrors 
The wind dances within your heart
And steals the silence
Of another's depart. 

And though we don't belong, 
And though I've grown too strong
I can't help but wish 
For a love that's so wrong.
