I don't know what's worse
The day you died
Or your funeral

I envy the sun.
It gets to shine on your charming face everyday,
stare at you from far above...

It will burn you, love you too much,
but you will bear with it,
and love it still.

It will hide its face for some time every night,
Turn it's back for awhile to take care of others,
and you will always wait faithfully and long for its return.

It will leave you little toys,
Trips to other worlds that shine bright,
Little holes in the galaxy
That connect like a connect-the-dots games,
To keep you entertain while it is away at work.
But you still long for it and love it still evermore.

It will stay with you,
watch over you,
take care of you and give you a smile,
keep you healthy.

And you always long for a bright, sunny day,
and stay gloomy when it's gone...

But I guess you need a dose of Vitamin D,
more than you need a dose of Vitamin Me.

I met you
In my dreams
I kissed you
Even though
I was not for you
Nor were you for me

My home
Is moments
That could never
Last forever

Words swirl through parting crimson.
Each syllable reflects on
the warm surface as it passes.
Some are almost drawn back
by the delicate wisp of breath.
Others are bitten off
stalled by a thought,
a look...
that look!
A tooth gripping soft red.
Released, the cherry
lips fall back in place.

Another butterfly flees my chest.
