Juicy and sweet,
pale rubies set in a pale body.
They burst in your mouth with every crunch.
The red stains your hands,
like blood covering your skin.

When I look up,
I don't see stars
I see the galaxies in your eyes.
I watch as they swirl
and spin in dizzying ways.
The sight is mesmerizing.
You are my black hole,
and I would willingly fall into oblivion
if I could just be with you.

Are there any moments
When you read a book
Or hear a song
A phrase maybe
And the thoughts
Of the one you once loved
Crosses your mind
