and so the stars fall. i could pretend to cry but the words don’t match the movements of your mouth these ordinary days and i’m doubting these after-all words; these silent praises and you wept in your shell on this blue-hung morning and i keep thinking, butterfly, that you’ll fly to me one day but i am just a glowing heart, royally veined, paper with its holes punched and yarn strung as i wear it around my neck and your bells ring true and your lips sigh in my praise and this is the last verse of solemnity in your opportune departure i fear will envelop me tomorrow evening. when you’re gone i will curse my velvet skies for trying and you’ll know you’ve bent my wire backbone into a delicate curve: i wasted so much time over moonpools and bleak-eyed evenings wondering where i was without you. even now i try to regain some sense of familiarity for those pale-skinned perspectives and your heart is nothing now. nothing more that your calendar and your course of events, your allure to solitude, and your rhythmic antipathetic hunger for faint love. |

this was a very heartfelt poem, love is still an emotion sometimes it portrays us even when we try to turn away. |

Aww, I sure felt this. What a piece of work.  Sauni Sauni :) Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps |
