I've written about the wind More than countless times. I've always been so envious Of it's freedom. But now more than ever The jealousy burns me The air How it moves and turns It's free And it can touch you. It gets to brush those lips I miss, And swirl around in your lungs. It's ubiquitous limbs Brush up against your arms And weave between those fingers it can hold your hands like I used to it can do everything I can't. but what I'm most covetous of how it can watch you and rest it's head against you how it can twist in between the cracks in your smile. the wind is my enemy she is the temptress that mocks me she laughs while I cry because she lives in your lips and you have no idea

Wind envy

It's ubiquitous limbs Brush up against your arms And weave between those fingers it can hold your hands like I used to it can do everything I can't. but what I'm most covetous of how it can watch you and rest it's head against you how it can twist in between the cracks in your smile. the wind is my enemy she is the temptress that mocks me she laughs while I cry because she lives in your lips and you have no idea
