Silver and then sliver and then breath.
Laughter and then contagious-
Like an irresistible stretch,
And a yawn in the classroom when trying your best
To act involved and at ease with your very own intellect.
Delectable the notion of exploring the oceans of opportunities
That lie right beside you.
Denied but with nothing left to lose
Because you've been here and worse,
So each shared second only soothes.
What soft ointment to care for the tender tear,
The pair of them a resolution
Like a sunset in substitution for
A reason to go there separate ways.
