| An Adjective That Means Perfect | |

Late at night before a nap and very much close to falling asleep and falling to a splendid dream. So spin, spin ever the faster And wait to breathe when we’re done This purity of moment Splashed with colors so bright And lace lacks its glamour without The stitches Have you heard music so ever so Tantalizing Without rhythm or lines Just black dots scattered Followed with a million repeats That smile is too real To be drawn up only for me So I’m jealous, terribly indeed That you smile so I love to look at our old pictures Shush a moment longer So we can be still and listen To the sounds that make up silence Like the breathing you can’t hear But resounds so heavy in my ear Louder if you close your eyes. Now you’ve ruined it With that scandalous laugh The trees are shocked by such behavior Make up for it Twirl around and court their leaves Such debonair air If it were up to me I would speak no three word phrases No simple finality You and a verb and me I would love love love love forever This elixir of simple Complex idealistic joy Is outrageously sweet Oh please try to remember this just So I don’t seem crazy When I burst in to smiles thinking back How ironic Such reality is wrapped around and around By aimless wandering Of the mind and heart as one Perhaps not for always But for sure right now this second of a lifetime A living daydream here Held by the palm of the shadows Cast by the sun So spin ever the faster To blur everything but the fact that We are perfect
