All I can seem to say:

blue light gently smoothes

the side of your face

as you turn

and I offer you a candy

because really we haven’t become

friends

yet

All I can seem to think:

Will you become the close

embrace that I have longed

for,

ten long years?

What are the secrets of your

notepad?

All I can seem to see:

The side glance as I leave for the day

A blue blue gaze

waves, ocean breeze crashing into me

I glance away

everytime

All I can seem to hear:

the weird cacophanoy of

singing and drums that

clouds my head

as I try to get through the day

My laugh as I giggle

again

at your not so funny joke

But I thought it was

hilarious

just like this absurd reality

we both

inhabit
