puffs of apple-flavored smoke
smokey breaths suspended in space
between your lips
tracing the path where mine had been

you are a beautiful soul

exchanging words,
i like the ideas of us,
the ones that we agree on,
the ones that we do not

you are a special person to me

holding hands
well, i guess we are a couple,
suffocating kisses,
a tender tongue of mischief

why are we like this?

you and i
we are working towards the start
of something great,
i think.

so that when we love,
beyond this lust,
beyond this superficial
feel-good love,
so that when we love
we will be conscious every second
of the glory it be
to love
with eyes wide open.

you are a beautiful soul
you are a special person to me
why are we like this?
