BLUE

Stuck in a motionless town

unmailed postcards scribbled with confessions

too far to be thought about

too lonely to ask


I liked the way you looked at me

on a midsummer night’s dream

You were warmer at noon

opened up with the sun


Dreaming in the day

of a curly haired fool

in a Beach Boys t-shirt

God only knows


There we were 

in a museum of frames

Don’t touch the art they said

I knew you weren’t mine to appreciate 


A shade of blue I never knew existed

Picasso’s masterpiece come to life

Unrequited love paints me this color

the purest form


Rooting for the downfall of others

embedded with sinful tendencies

I still feel warm around you

although goosebumps cover my skin


The thought of you has to be good enough

to settle for love is not to settle at all

An unstoppable train

since feelings never truly go away
