Poem: Cotton Candy
Poem: Cotton Candy
I’ll dream of you
In navy blue
Like you wore on that late spring night
When the festival light
Of fireworks bright
Was reflected back by your wide eyes.
I’ll sing to you of the world as I knew it
Amid the neon boom
That pounded in my ears.
It was the same night that I knew I loved you,
Cotton candy caught in my curls
Like the woven thread
Of my fingers intertwined with yours,
When I stood close enough to you
That I thought I could hear
The navy blue neon boom
Of your heartbeat matching mine.

Poem: Brown-Haired Boys
She told me she was bored
Of brown-haired boys
Because of old and tired lines
And dates that felt like wasted time.
She told me she was tired
Of brown-haired boys and flirty smiles
Because her first love left his mark
When he left her in the dark.
She told me she had more than enough
Of brown-haired boys for the next few months
Or more;
She had closed and locked that door.

Poem: Time
I felt the passage of time
More strongly than ever
When I had peace and quiet
Enough to watch it
Drift through my fingers,
Enough for me to feel fine
About how fleeting it is
To be alive, how fleeting
It is to have time, to live
To let go of it, to live and
To be alive.

Poem: If You Take My Hand Tonight
If you take my hand tonight,
I’ll show you a love as bright
As the moon reflected in your eyes;
A love as true
As a clear afternoon sky is blue;
A love as real for me
As I hope it is for you.

Poem: Bouquet
I’ll sow the seeds of love
And treat them tenderly
In hopes that flowers
Of affection will bloom
In your heart someday,
And that you’ll feel inclined
To gather them into a bouquet
That makes you think of me.
