flashes of your smile
I'm growing less bitter
this familiar mile
is now littered with her
I don't know how
to kiss your lips
I need it now at a
moment like this
I need your beauty
beside me
I need to erase
my shame
a windchill a
sun beam
there saying
my name
nature is green
with envy of thee
the falling leaves
are of my own body
in tow of
the spirit that
has now
known yours
found hidden beaches
felt the snow storms
I'm willing to learn the
things you want me to
if that's now what it
takes to get
to you
I've since learned new
things, though my
pride still burns
it's with unfamiliar
brightness that
my heart now
yearns

it's with unfamiliar

yearns
dreams flood reality
