You write poetry in lilac skies and
I could only admire them from a distance,
This is how I will remember you
In lines and rhymes that spill magic
Into the horizon, right into my doorsteps
Thunderstorms run through my fingers
Seizing me from top to toe.
I want to know the secrets
Behind your Monalisa smile
And the lingering gloom in the corners
Of your winged tipped eyes,
I want to know your hidden desires
What sets your soul aflame
What floats your boat
What makes you tick and click,
Someday, I want to hold your hand
And trace the faint lines of your palms
Sketch my dreams as neatly as I could
Beneath the spaces of your
Perfectly laid out plans.
For now, I'll allow myself to
Sink and drown in the depths
Of your words and soul
From a distance, My Love
From the stars
You'll always be
So near
So near
Yet, oh so far.
