Rain blurs mirrors
Rain shatters my thoughts
and the primroses dotting my garden
luring
The crows, ravens, hummingbirds, and nightingales
that all look the same
but not her

Except for her
that girl
Outstretched, unordinary
Stimulating the Autumn mix of leaves
and two week grass clippings

Inside, heart and lungs and mind
they've all stopped working
liver, glands...all have stopped producing

though lively and
pale,
obtuse, and generically flawed
with a drawn word

I'm clean
but I'm high

floating on thin air

My eyes allow me to see that air
and I love to breathe
but I hate to exhale

and admit that i need someone
.that i want her.
That i'm drawn to a carnal pleasure
and.. i'm stuck with

Attraction.
which is more than physical alignment
And the augmentation of love

Attraction is a constant addiction
to longing eyes
and a smile unfurling life.

allure is overated
and flawed.

"I love to breathe but I hate to exhale" Like walking through a mixture of bliss and disappointment, a brilliant piece. I think it was Keats who i'm summarizing here claimed that "To dream is perfect, to live is flawed"

Breathtaking. "The crows, ravens, hummingbirds, and nightingales/ that all look the same/ but not her" This line stuck out to me, I love this. Wonderful job, thank you. -Courtney
