I see the universe in the iris of your eyes
But the Big Dipper threatens to tip over...

The line where land meets the
horizon is loveliest at night...

My blood looks enticing in its compartments.
I’m tempted to pierce my paper-thin skin...

The days pass by in a dizzying blur.
And I find myself counting the seconds until...

Grayed and heavy cumulus gather overhead,
Attempting to thwart my sunshine endorphins...

You were the very glue that held this
family together, our center of gravity...

She was the purple-blue night sky that always felt...
She was the drug I’d always use when I felt too...

Sunlight pours through closed blinds
Casting a row of light beads on my pillow...

I’m not showered in love like the others
Even when I put my best efforts into you...

I get stuck in your eyes when you look at me
Just like two brilliant crystal green gems...

I’d rather tear myself apart a million times...
They say ignorance is bliss and I can’t help but...

Green eyes
Darkly rimmed, mixed with molten amber gold...
