fool's gold.

by ian-tishler

skies have been brighter. nights have been nicer. usually the light at the end of my sight is a horizon; a sunrise. (not like they lead to amazing grace) but, the past few days, no, weeks, no, months, have been a grace from a God I don’t believe; It’s been you. I hate saying it, but poems don’t do it justice, and songs just get repetitive. Somehow I feel a reason to live. I could give you a heart on a platter, I could give you anything I can humanly procure, or at least I’d try, or in my dreams, if ever I do rest, I’d love to acquire your head on my chest, your breath on my neck, your hand in my hair. I don’t know how I can bare thinking about this all the time. I mean that in the most positive way, because I love it, and I do everyday. I’ll cut this short, I could write you a novel, Here’s my heart of pyrite, put it in your locket and hold it tight, keep it by your chest when you say "goodnight."
