Sparks Flecks Once existed in the sea Of blue That I saw within the bottomless space of your eyes Open with a pupils large Gone Too wide to see the gold Too awake to rest your head again On my chest Where you felt safe Eyes wide open Afraid Of the image of yourself you saw in the mirror Of the cold sore on your lips Of the disease inevitable in a city full of life Pain Harm Fear A man willing to **** another for pleasure Trauma Running Love lost, not regained but distracted With music Relationships *** No sleep On top of the world, You gaze down upon your city of tiny people Too far away to teach, to reach, to love To acknowledge that your bubble of thought Can be broken by the single ***** Of a thorn Or a kiss If you let it You gave the gold to the brown of those Who love you Who gaze at you with gold running down their faces We can’t put the gold Back in your eyes Has it left for good? The oranges hues That once lit up the bright ocean blues Of your mind?
