Mellifluous (Reversed Nonet)

by Meme   Apr 29, 2013


Why
ask for
diamonds
when the glimmer
of your eyes captures
me the most. Why ask when
the warmth of your whispers ties
my heart with yours; like harmonized
strings in orchestrated lullabies.

    LOVE the form girl!!! Havent read one of these in AGES...so refreshing!!

    This is so incredibly beautiful. Love that in these few lines, you question 2 things, then answer it in the end...

    Elegant is the perfect description for your words here. Makes me want to fall in love with someones eyes.
