Chrysanthemum
She was
An exquisite mime
A carved forgotten beauty
Blindsided my dreamscape...she did
Propped her visage inside my mind...
Swimming.....swarming along the edges of my
Sub-conscious
My Eros
Left me hungover...with a mourning stretch
My glossed figurine...sifting ethereal
Spoon-feeding sweet memoirs
From the {most-high-school}..etched from another time-line
She'd string together days of future-past theories
Just for me...where we aged like fine wine
Where all of our what-ifs became that potent fifth
Of liquefied love
We'd forever stay drunk on..

Excellent, creative write. Really well drawn out with the visual lines that you created.
Your writing is always well worth the read. This one especially tho. It is impressive.
And dude, I'm stealing that header pic! That is so cool!
