~Persistent illusion~

As if you were on fire from within, the moon lives in the lining of your skin-Pablo Neruda

coffee

and roses

dreams
Velvet

Rustling

Between fingers

Clinging

To shadow

And corners

Einstein called time

a stubborn persistent illusion

You’re

the wave,

Not the drop

The smell

Of fresh cut

Grass

Not really

Sure how

To feel

About it

Why is it

that we want the ones

who don't see us

instead of the ones who do

Green eyes

You always

Make my imagination

Run

Crawls

Between

The pages

Of my soul

thick circles

Of magnolia leaves

Flowers

Light

And spicy

Mosaics

Of pink

hugging white

Hang lazy

Noticing

The day

More
It's quiet,

peaceful.
all of a sudden,

it's a gear shift inside you.
And it's like

taking a deep breath

I’m just

Thinking

About you

More than

I should be

Be easy,

Take your

Time

Come

home

I loved you

Not for the way

You

Danced with my angels

But the way

You silenced

My demons

Hearts are wild creatures,

that’s why our ribs are cages
