her eyes twin galaxies
as deep and unfathomable as the universe
a crippling suspense in their depths
of frozen memories
and tragedies meant to turn another direction
stardust sprinkled over her cheeks
and he connected the freckles on her skin into neon circuit lines
each one of them with a certain meaning
she smiled softly
looking down at the book he handed her
her eyelashes casted sharp branchlike shadows over her light cheekbones
as she looked down at the book
all the colors in her cheeks were gone
and he wondered where they were now
