there are two sides of you.
youdisplay
dilated eyes full of
intense admiration.
soft skin that glows like
a stars collision.
but they do not know
you cover up your blemishes.
your lips curve upwards;
red,
like the blood you bleed with.

there are two sides of you.
youhideaway
a wary heart broken like
the bonds you dream of.
a head full of pain dominated by
the ones you needed.
your sore and useless limbs;
you know you let them in.
an empty mind full of dead ends;
you know you let them win.
Constellations gather in her eyes,
and from her sweet lips comes the faintest of sighs.
I don’t know what goes on in that head of hers
but I bet it is just the most beautiful verse.
Billions of years crumble in an instant,
the speed of light suddenly not constant.
The laws of physics vanish from my view,
I can’t believe the universe produced a beauty such as you.
