Blonde in hair and face,
Eyes glowing like the skies above our heads.
In a tired morning, I am in your presence as you sigh.
All I need is to throw my arms around you and hold you until the ground falls away around us.
I just listen,
listen to your pain because I hope it can be mine too.
The deep red lines across my skin don’t matter to you, sweetheart,
But I hope my smile chimes a sweet chord somewhere within.
Yours most certainly lights up my heart.
When your eyes meet mine, my sun starved soul glows in ultraviolet glory.
I don’t know how to get you,
I don’t know what I should say.
So I wait, all year long, until you leave me as well.
