short but sweet (Remove filter)
You
Why is sweetness doing wrong
Why eyes that make the day seem long
Satisfied, bound, no longer free
Absorbed by a face, pure poetry
Why words that stay and overcome
Why no punctuation, overrun
The current and the wave are one
Unfurled, unbothered, I’m undone
Why velvetness of such a dream
Why unfettered beauty, smudged but clean
A little wire taut, is mean
