"He sleeps"
Romance closed eyed
A kiss
A wish
A sigh....
Spread your wings
lay fast your lids
and fly
Why is it beauty we don't look to see
As if afraid to break some invisible guarantee
Her eyes close
too long
Depress, depressed, depression
is not this song
this battle
yet this same..same ole song
Awake three days and sleep four more
and somehow, thank god, he doesn't know
he's being ignored
No longer will my words implore her
If strength can loosen my stomach muscles
(daily to I pray for this strength)
and smooth my furrowed brow
he and I will go to the park
to make up for her yesterday's promise
The tire swings
The breeze
The jungle gym and seesaw sounds
The impromptu laughter
Will all be delivered beyond the bounds
of what matters
Because my eyes will be be open
as I thirstily take in the beauty
