Turquoise Fades

Playgrounds
 
I can hear her breathe  
beyond this realm,
 
I feel the sunrise  
when she flashes that smile,
 
I see her pain fade  
as I trace a finger along  
her glowing symmetry,
 
I drift lethargically  
into the galaxy of her soul,
 
leaving me mellow  
still warm in freezing cold,
 
I hover inside  
of her shine,
 
planting forget me not's  
and chasing fireflies  
a child at play,
 
never to feel  
the sadness of night,  
 
eternally young  
within her sacred light.  
 
Current
 
Take from me only
what you can carry,
 
bury me into the  
memories of epoch,
 
so I may twinkle
amaranthinely,
 
in the galaxy  
of your mind.  
 
Permission
 
Drifting in the  
sea of obliterated hope,
 
anchored to  
friendly loneliness,
 
my drops cleanse  
the waters,
 
your face reflects  
back at me as you,  
 
fade into the abyss  
of my regret.
 
Tickled
 
Lost in a feather's valley  
 
blowing within the afterglow
 
of faded specters just to  
 
capture a slivered image  
 
of you.  
 
Sting
 
I have tasted the salt  
of your umbra,
 
slipped inside the screams  
of your exultant,  
 
just to die cloaked  
from pang.  
 
Replay
 
Jagged comets drop
from your breath,  
 
igniting a deluge
of mirth,
 
that falls victim  
to the singultus  
of yesterday's shriek.
 
Nucleic Anomaly
 
Displaced waves  
of conformity,  
 
cyclone my atrium  
to the slip-stream,
 
of obsidian void  
sonic boom of clarity.  
 
Never
 
Magnetized in archaic  
repositories of piety,
 
only to dance a one
step in the physical
realm.
 
Birth Right
 
To practice hilarity
grants me a  
crown of docility.
 
Jubilant Tintinnabulation
 
Truncate utopian contingent
legislated rendered deed
grandiose facade parade.
