(laughing) It was her eyes that first grabbed me as I floated in an ocean of tidings, and blue. Eyes that I’d never even seen before, ‘cept for the thoughts they conveyed in context like little black footprints in the snow purposely trudging to some unvarnished forrest of veracity, and embrace. Why is it that no one else has the same eyes as her? Eyelashes like quotation marks that frame every thought of her gaze and every wink of her wit as they raise and lower like soft curtains of a one woman show of musicals and romantic dramedies. Pupils that learn by allowing vision to enter their mind and coalesce with the brilliance of their twinkle, cleansed by the liquid lament of heartache, and regret. Like two lighthouse beacons that glitter in the night they set firm and foxy aloft rosy moulin mounds of rouge and pinch cheeky satin swirling atop an elegant nose that crinkles cute and flares when sassed or saucy, tickled, or kissed with lips that fall quietly onto the muffled whispers, of his name from her mouth, moist and wanting. Each letter, of every word that I press down is just another thrust from my fingers through your hair, another gentle stroke of my hand against your face, one more plunge of my premise, enduring for you to draw unyielding, into the corner of your clenched devotion. You are, my naked truth of the bare sun and leafless moon, that we’ve become. Ever chasing, ever apart, till the final endearment, of our eclipse. |
