imaginations can create perfection
characters based on the written pages
and stories passed down through generations
when even a tragic hero can find redemption
romantic notions do not interest me today
tall tales and far seas are the locations where
your stories are unfolding
but today i am thinking of your reality
im thinking of sunburns and tan lines
want to fall asleep to see if I will awaken
when deep sleep patterns turn to breathing, turn to snoring
turn to morning breath that i will ignore
to be inside your proximity
never mind the sweat that is sticking my face to you
never mind that reflection this time
today i am thinking that my imperfect body will be just fine
thinking about savoring this moment,
its taste, smell and touch
drowning in eyes and smiles and laughter
being swallowed whole by this one second
without gloss and without glamour
some connections dont allow for us to stammer with our words
waiting around for appropriate times
to say appropriate things
insecurities can create hesitance
a moment's waiting is a moment lost
its spark disappeared to something you may have wanted
if you had the guts to take it
today i am thinking of your reality
without a thought regarding pretense or preconceived notions
thinking what is special is whats living and breathing
in my eyes right now
when the lights are left on
and i dont look away to the floor.
