As I connect the dots
Of the freckles that lie
Between your light green eyes
My mind starts to wander
I say that as if this is a new occurrence,
But to tell you the truth it has become a subconscious tick of mine
It is the new dwelling place of silent moments and anxiously drawn lines
And it's comfortable
As you have probably seen
I am a nervous guy
Kind of shy and disconnected
Always viewing life from afar
But you chose to draw me near
From the midst of my favorite fog
And I've been stunned by the sudden clarity
How the edges of your fingers have become clear
Sometimes I miss it though
Because the sharp edges hurt
I mean the unfocused blurs in my disconnected world
Never fulfilled but also never burned
Never left me wanting more because there was never that initial taste
But now I'm left starving because i found reality in those lines I connected between your eyes
And I am ruined
