Colm Dec 2021
When I see your eyes, I take my time
I look beyond the color scheme
The imperfect stare
And the awkward potential there
Shared inbetween

When I look at you, nothing else exists

When I look at you, I see
Colm Dec 2021
Like moon to sun
Like land to sea
Like curls to straights of burning sands
Like clouds to rainy streets of leaves

It's that and this
It's greys once green
So similar yet
So different these
Beautiful beside
Colm Dec 2021
well or ill
or thought of or not
means less to me now
having been the constant
attentive focus
of your forgot

and yet fine
is me
in this unnatural sea
for your hold has no sway
and I have no such need
of you to set me free
I think it's funny. That after all these years, I still can, and do, attract the same kind of people to me.

Very ironic.

Words can only start
To quench such a rampant thirst
For these thoughts of yours

Where night ends slowly
And day begins most abrupt
We fend, waking up

Find me not beneath
A different sea of trees
For I will not, leaf?

Radiance is not
Merely the sand or sea breeze
But you there at ease
