hex

do they all only try so hard after its over and before it begins?

Today in a breeze I sensed your perfume
But you were nowhere near.
And in reverie,
I felt you holding me.
And even in my dreams I shake from the fear
That you’ve been swept away.
By the rhythm of the waves I whisper in your ears.

I have been holding my breath,
For too many nights in a row,
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me
You paint your dreams,
With reds and blues and greens.
Yea you’re painting daffodils by the sea,
Without me.

do you read the threads i send?
or the songs i seed in your mailbox?

do you see me hoping you’ll give me a little attention, full drawn attention when you’re next to me?
give me a little smile, a little wave, when i’m jumping up and down, banging at the window by your balcony?

you nod and smile and act like you’re around but in your eyes i see you’re far, so far away.

how is it that you feel so close, yet so so far away from me.

and the world will keep spinning and my heart won’t stop beating to wait for you.

they’ll sync, yes our hearts will sync, when you start connecting with me.

do you read the threads i send?
or the songs i plant in your mailbox?
