You whispered through the crowd.
Shoved your number in my pocket.
Crumpled in a paper piece with all the touches shared.
And like your hair
My likeness parted into endless strands
At your stare.
Crayola eyes
That fill a pastel green around my greyest sights
And when I start to cry then
You can see these droplets splash
And trickle out... giving life to new horizons.
Tree bark lips -
earthly brown
Absorbing through a sip
butterfly brushed winds
through milk skins.
And finally... at longest last
I chime to seas
my dampened voice -
A colored harmony
residing deep within my throat coated with honey moist -
Tasteful... luscious... thickened thoughts...
And all thanks to your pencil eyes.
Sketching me through stencils -
Traced out to a crisp.
Pin me down.
Tell me how end goes.
But please... please...
leave me not in lone plateaus.
All I breathe... All I need
are autumn leaves to rustle
with my dying breeze...
Please...
Don't let me die bone-dry in deserts...
Wrap me in a jungle
With your hair that tumbles down in vines
When I do start to stumble.
