the dark
is just a star
slow rainbow soup

it was my screen saver
one day

i drove

timed it so that we would see the
                    purples and blues
                    oranges and yellows
of a disappearing sun.
I
would say
my sweetheart
There is in my sky
your moon, it's smiling
There is in my morning
your shine is playing.
Love,
There is in my evening
your shadow, it's hiding
When I am suffering
you keep laughing
but what is why?
I still love you
and miss
You.
give me a gold dress
to match my soul
You said I have strawberry skin
And I have an appetite
For finding hungry people
That's why you bite
Right from the center of me

You consumed me
Like my eyes didn't weep
When you split me in two
This was a sweet nothing
Just for you
The smoke cleared
And I was the same
Shade of blue as the sky

My heart was falling ash
That took shape
In the form of you

Because even when you tried
To burn down all that was left
I was still on fire
