i met you in the flesh of an early morning swinging on rainforest vines sparkling san francisco golden gate haven sun, so radiant yet so tranquil
i met you, hazy with some byproduct of devotion i was standing in rapture an echo of aspiration and restoration an outline of a happiness that somehow seemed like closure
i met you, a symbolic glimmer drunk in your joyousness meeting as the morning dew barely dries from the damp grass blue eyes like sapphires, like rubies, like gold
i was struck with akrasia i forgot how to shake hands i mumbled between my teeth i met you, so shimmery, so wonderful so full of mirth and i lost yet another thing to my greed and selfishness
do you go by some pseudonym at this moment in time? i can’t find you in the rainforest trees, rains, or vines you can’t be lost forever
i am daft and i am dominoes crumbling and i am debris from a rotted sea
and you are faithful and cheerful and jolly and dopamine rushes and how dare i quell the moonlight inside you
if you have broken hands, i promise i will fix them if you have died and went to Heaven i dare you to send me a safe haven of angels who all know my name a safe haven of ballerinas loose on a stage a safe haven of happiness where songbirds dance and dancers sing a safe haven where violets bloom after the gloom i hope your absence doesn’t contribute to the atrophy of my being
but if it does, i least i met you for a little while in the carcass of a morning apparition
