i fell in love with you once long ago with my eyes closed and the dream-screen drawn we danced like music notes across their barred landscape we danced the loveliest late-night lullaby you became my hiding place lilac and lace linens stretched over a lumpy matress my indiana jones waiting patently and poetically in a long-lost temple of slumber you come back to me in waves softly and subtly while i'm half awake you're kissing the broken down shorelines of an insomniacs holiday i wish i could keep you like an empty bottle in the window-sill or a heart arrhythmia this lonely romantics cardiovascular waltz let me snag you up from my dream-dust and stitch you to my sole like a lost boys shadow let me find you in my reality tip-toeing over an underlined paragraph of a beer stained paper-back i'll find you someday after a long-over-due nights sleep perhaps in the guitar strings or type-writer keys or at the bottom of a bottle of whiskey in the ever-humming freezer be mine evasive valentine i'll even let you hide in the curls of my hair or under my fingernails i'll keep you if you'll let me just don't forget me come sun-up when you gallup away from my sub-conscious escape take my heart-rate with you tucked into your breast-pocket like a floral handkercheif or a photogaraph taped to the dash come back to the grey matter kingdom tucked behind my eyelashes i'll meet you in the idiosyncrasies of my synapses writing love stories that never once happened

evasive valentine.
i fell in love with you once long ago with my eyes closed and the dream-screen drawn we danced like music notes across their barred landscape we danced the loveliest late-night lullaby you became my hiding place lilac and lace linens stretched over a lumpy matress my indiana jones waiting patently and poetically in a long-lost temple of slumber you come back to me in waves softly and subtly while i'm half awake you're kissing the broken down shorelines of an insomniacs holiday i wish i could keep you like an empty bottle in the window-sill or a heart arrhythmia this lonely romantics cardiovascular waltz let me snag you up from my dream-dust and stitch you to my sole like a lost boys shadow let me find you in my reality tip-toeing over an underlined paragraph of a beer stained paper-back i'll find you someday after a long-over-due nights sleep perhaps in the guitar strings or type-writer keys or at the bottom of a bottle of whiskey in the ever-humming freezer be mine evasive valentine i'll even let you hide in the curls of my hair or under my fingernails i'll keep you if you'll let me just don't forget me come sun-up when you gallup away from my sub-conscious escape take my heart-rate with you tucked into your breast-pocket like a floral handkercheif or a photogaraph taped to the dash come back to the grey matter kingdom tucked behind my eyelashes i'll meet you in the idiosyncrasies of my synapses writing love stories that never once happened
