i want you to know that
you sound like the color yellow.
like sleeping hands or a
violin solo in a symphony
or cold bed sheets in the summer.

*

i want you to know that
i would remain for eternity if
it meant you would be there,
by my side. i could be your lover -
today, and every day.

*

i want you to know that
my every molecule screams out
to you. my spine is fractured and
my lungs are collapsing under the
pressure and i'm not sure
how much longer i can take this
loveneedwant.

*

but i guess a few more hours
wouldn't hurt.
:heart: extremely cliche, i know.

also, there's a full moon out tonight.

Hello!

As part of a new found poetry form, brought to us by =SilverInkblot and employed in our new group, #TheTitlePage, I have used the title of this lovely deviation in a poem here:

Scooping Cherry Blossoms with Bare Hands

Thank you so much!

:heart:
