She is like the light

the blue light, that crops life

into some picture-perfect kiss and heart

wandering I go,

clouds and echoes

they pour down and talk about love

in every sun-drenched step

she smiles

and says it’s all right

and even when I look out into loneliness

as the sun drops and the stars spit

she breathes and wanders

in her own head

in my own heart

the dying of the light

I catch her like a kite

loose and torn

my shoulder against the frame of night

cold, gray, sun blessed

love blessed

a Dixie pout in Heaven

the road worn and all that

and it’s human on human

it’s beauty unknown

exploding like some summer blush

a street, a lane, a river that boils

I hand her a flower

broken but beautiful

in my gray night

where I troll and dream

love light just written in a book

this heart arcing, exploding

some stranger’s tears running down

across the space between us

and I can taste her

across a world

across a distance

and I hold her in the space

the division runs asunder

yet I know her

completely, dreamy, love like the sun

love some magic burn

tattooed like fire and light

a kiss to melt my endless mountains.
