This beach, one of morbid solitude,
invigorates the dreamer within me...
How can you say you love me,
If you barely know who I am...
The stem droops,
Reaching for the ground...
Hearts beating like a rumbling thunderstorm
Within a fragile cage of ribs...
Lavish promises rooting musings
Upon paper thin hopes...
The light grows dim outside my window
The elegance of nature illuminated by streaks...
Fallen from clouds I have yet to caress
Dreaming of the wings I so crave...
Whenever I say goodnight to you,
The absence of your words leaves...
The stories told of carriages, fairies, magic,
Princes searching for their princesses...
When I look into her starlit eyes
Butterflys flutter in my tummy...
Buried deep in a lovers' garden, my eyes swim in...
fingers tracing over the delicate petals and down...
Golden fields of honey painted wheat
Dance to the songs of fragile cardinals...
