So I can see you. So I can see you and your beautifully chiseled face. So I can see you and your thick brown hair. and the freckles that lightly coat your cheek bones. Your cheekbones that once blushed because you were falling in love. Come closer so I can speak to your fiery eyes. The color of roasted chestnut. The color of addiction. Can you come closer? So I can see your fleshy lips. Your perfect, pink lips- and let me touch them. Can you come closer? So I can see your stupid short eyelashes. That I had always hoped my daughter would never inhereit. Now she won't. Can you come closer? So I can kiss you goodbye.
