silver
dripping like silver
paler than moonshine
softer than sun

yellow
twinkling like yellow
brighter than stardust
fuller than gold

hazel
shockingly hazel
lingering gently
too far away

heartbeat
our pounding heartbeat
muted by blankets
smothered by wants

early
alone too early
darker than morning
colder than night

hold me
why can't you hold me
when i weep softly
itching to fly

pillow
you are the pillow
i grasp too tightly
dream while i sigh

always
wistful for always
breathing too deeply
green eyes closed tight

longer
aching for longer
why do we have to
why can't you stay

craving
just you i'm craving
yellow on silver
hazel on green

make it
think i can make it?
soft golden pillows
last through the night
