She smelled of wild lavender and deep magicks, The scent hanging in the air like a golden silence, I'm trying to hold tightly yet composure is first to dissolve, Senses fall one by one until no dominoes are left, Stop staring, act natural and crumble on the inside, Don't speak, reserve your efforts for a smile, Blown fuse serviced from the under-wing like vertigo in my veins, and neatly betwixt two fingers twirl a cotton drapery, Framed in silk halo, enshrouding like auras in a Milky Way of phantasmagoria. Until my thoughts become in summary and each breathe becomes shorter than the last. The artistry of her elegance like sleek fine line-work on vintage paper and I'm ... feather light. And in those tresses I'd seen that sheen before, in the ripple of calm ocean waves, and in auburn at sunset. I'd seen that gloss in her eyes perched upon petals as morning dew and rain upon windows in my quiet times, Between the silhouetting slopes of her contours as dunes upon the horizon, there's an eclipse in her lips that would not speak in any less than measured prosody nor kiss without dreamscape grandeur.

A Conflagration of Butterflies.
She tells me that she's weird, and that she doesn't know how someone like me would even talk to someone like her. Honestly, if she is weird, then I have been living a very bland life, and I'd rather join in on insanity with her. She's got eyes like the Earth itself, and long brown hair like the Weeping Willow in October. I want to see her morph into the disastrous hurricane that she claims to be; I want to transform her into the pearl that she really is. I want to observe her and find out what makes her tick, and what makes her smile. (She's got the most beautiful smile.) I want to travel to New York City and dance with her in the rain until she is smiling to the sky again. And in the city of bright lights, her eyes were the brightest.

The City of Bright Lights
It was spring and I was sitting on the grass When someone sat in front of me, a Bonnie lass Her brown hair was moving by the wind I took a deep breathe and I smelled fresh mint I stood up and walked to her, but my body froze I had many shivers from my head all the way to my toes Was I scared of asking her or was I scared of things in the past Oh I want you, my Bonnie, Bonnie lass
