O pleasant one
staring at the sun
ruin your eyes and bloom sunflowers
from the pupils of your idiocy
make friends with the girl in the marching band
tell her the sketchers bring out her heart
bring tears to her eyes because she
likes the sound of your heartbreak
show mother that her beauty is more
than her makeup
and her tears at night as she tries to
give you a father
paint the laughs of the people in Dubai
when you visit in the summer
after college and make the rain
your favorite because you can't stop it anyway
share the warmth of your pretty skin
with someone who will leave in 2 minutes
to board the plane and leave a hole
forever in your heart
make everything alright in your last
breaths and let your children
who cry beside you know they are extraordinary
and you forgive them for the mess with the blender
when they were twelve
you're grand so let them feel your grandness
leave every last bit of your heart
in the quiet streets you walk through
love... endlessly
