nothing is alright now
little sorrows dancing ‘round
like mother-toes and baby eyes
round like glass and in a kind of semi-circle
i will never laugh again
i do not understand
why you love like this
little blueberry spots in your eyes
and the smallest circle blackness beneath your eyelashes
you make me ache
as if each rib desires an escape
from my heart
she looks like sunlight
but not the empty kind
staring like stars
freckles like tiny moon-spots
i cannot look this way
the sun has long set
and the moon has hidden
beneath my never-ending loneliness
inspiration-and-identification: you (your blog) is so melancholically exquisite, thank you
oh! thank you, my dear. your words are far too kind.
