How to: focus on letters falling out of your mouth like a leaky spigot when you have orchard eyes & honeysuckle lashes that I am positive would feel like the down of the most expensive pillow if brushed against my fingertips, & lilac breath that dances around your dripping syllables so gracefully & dissipates like the sweetest fog around me so that I cannot see past you; but why, why on Earth would I ever look away?

What I Never Learned
How to: focus on letters falling out of your mouth like a leaky spigot when you have orchard eyes & honeysuckle lashes that I am positive would feel like the down of the most expensive pillow if brushed against my fingertips, & lilac breath that dances around your dripping syllables so gracefully & dissipates like the sweetest fog around me so that I cannot see past you; but why, why on Earth would I ever look away?
