The gentle comments
This convincing chuckle
Your silky lips
And tender fingertips

Is this a play that we put on
Dress up and deliver lines
Gasp, laugh, yell, and cry
"Alive" we live "a lie"

Quick draw the blinds
Now blow out the candle
This is the end for you for me
Living this ****** formality

Atmospheric ice,
Sculpted lines across the sky,
Remnants of beauty,

Who wants to be a star...

If it means being light years away?

Words don't weigh enough to speak my mind,

Silenced voices will be heard,

In the echos of cataclysmic action.

Verdant and lush cliffs of green,
Tangled ivy and hyacinth,
Living brushstrokes paint a scene,
Bright and peaceful labyrinth,

Sweet scent wafting in the breeze,
Reflected light crowns each swell,
Sapphiric hues swirl the seas,
Cobalt depths where shadows dwell,

Granite peaks with greyscale shroud,
Icy peaks where snowflakes fall,
Silent glaciers cloaked in cloud,
Titans tower over all,

Maple, oak, and evergreen,
Dancing sway with nature song,
Lusher robes than kings have seen,
Vines and willows ever long.

Tucked under watch of a recent town,
Nourishing raindrops trickle down,
Steady on, a boy works the land,
For none here would eat, 'cept by his hand,
Through the night and on to the morn,
He works alone as a new day is born,
Digging, raking, and sowing,
Soon labor's fruits are growing,
Dread spring flood or autumn gale,
He tends the earth in heat or hail,
To find to reap, the sweetest feat,
To give others, his crop to eat.
Be a farmer of kindness...

A friend told me your news,

            They showed me a picture of your gown,
  
                                   ...

                                  You married him, wearing the necklace I gave you.
