Your sensitive eyes
Could definitely summon me
From across a crowded room,
And I would make my way
...
Remember me on a lonely day
When sadness takes you to a place
You do not want to go.
...
I want to kiss your arms
On a park bench in the sunlight,
They’d be sweet and warm,
Life would begin to feel right.
...
Drunken mystics
Reveal simple truths
Like the fragility
Of child-like hearts;
...
We have this hour
To light candles
And to open the widows
Invitingly to spring breezes;
...
Your world is fragile glass
Every day breaking like bones
Against the heartless pavement
Of this dingy city where dreams disappear
...
Nothing is more important
Than a woman’s thoughts
Unless it is the mystery
Of her beckoning eyes.
...
Gathering flowers
That grow in sidewalk cracks,
I romantically dream of you.
...
I’m searching the expansive, azure sky
For a woman’s anodyne brown eyes
That escaped from her face
To watch this place,
...
I’ll search for you
On a summer night
Beneath a radiant, orange moon;
I’ll slowly saunter
...
