Description
with liquid playfulness
and soapy passion
this wand comitted
to your every breath
as i did then

surface tension to match
the thickness of my nerves
squirming only in my heart
as i watch you watch the world
not caring for your gaze
asmuch as i long for its chill

not willing to accept the truth
of physics and inertia
this gracefully balanced sphere
longs to be caressed by my hand

if only a way
these tears could compensate
make up for my lack of shine
yet your eyes glisten more
and make up for my lack of luster
complementing my attentive smile

guilty of rudeness
focus into stare
the axis of this bubble
shifts to the center of the moment

let it float by

reach out
only when you look away
resume the facade
when your gaze return
pretending as nothing
that my attention is only your eyes

smile, laugh, youre more than a faerie tale
more than the reality of the body next to me
more than that smile
more than your wings
the ones i gave to you
in exchange for this poem
youre inspiration to my pen
let me take flight
if only for a moment
i shall accept the fate of icarus
if only this bubble i could catch tonight
