dear girl,
when you are around me even the
polluted frozen lake looks beautiful.

if the world was all full of zombies all of a sudden,
i'd want you to be with me and fend them off.

them with their shopping-bag-plastic smiles and
voices that sound like when the plastic whips
in the wind.

gosh, your eyes are like the summer sun.

___

you,

no, I'd like to think my eyes are more like
the dirt under a peach tree.

___

dear girl,
you are that feeling that happens when cold air passes by,
and in its wake it leaves a tunnel of no-space,
the vortex of breathes it takes and
goosebumps it gives.
you are that emptiness.

but oh, god, it feels so good on my skin.

a boy who is like the air on a warm summer night talked to me
[he has seen my underwear]
but i pushed him
away
and tried to fall into your cold ribbons of fresh, clean, cold air –
but i didn't catch onto it as i fell.
sometimes when i talk i can't breathe.

___

you,

it is lovely to fall asleep in someone's arms.

___


baby,
it feels like the electricity before a summerrain,
when the sky is heavyheavy and swollen and
dark gray clouds with edges that are lighter are
ready to burst –
and the air whips around me
[sometimes i wear dresses just to feel pretty,
pale pale so that my bra shows through]
and it feels like the warm summer night.

it is that midnight blue feeling of someone's breath
on your neck
[and he thinks my underwear are cute].


you have dandelion eyes.

but, darling,
the flowers won't grow unless these clouds
burst.

___


you,

porcelain breaks so easily, but glass breaks more completely.

___

sweetie,
seashells are more beautiful.
.
I had [three] panic attacks today.


beat me around in your oceanstorm.
rain, rain, rain.
how does it matter?

like that last dandelion in the field,
goddamnit, you just have to kick it over.
but but but it'll leave eventually, dandelion eyes.
