the blizzard’s never seen the desert sand

a deep breath and transcendence to another universe

I am looking though honey but I only want your eyes

stay still, stay solid, don’t lose that unique soul

in this syrupy liquid rushing around our naive eyes

days later…

she sits on the same park bench

with that faint half smile

and you see the sun shining behind her

in an accidentally perfect halo

go get her now

hold your heart in gentle palms

quivering like a lost baby bird

until a sharp gust of slightly dry wind

and you most definitely feel in your bones

ready for that first glorious flight
