My Familiar

The sun dries out hourly.

The trees climb up an invisible

latter.

My smile is contained by


an unseen matter.

The sky is magic, I've decided,

and switches its makeup look

to the shade of

Sudden Night.


Leaves turn into my tears


and fall

and fall

and fall.


Once I thought I saw you


in a living field of the color purple,

your lips exquisitely parted

and sitting like a painting, waiting for me to come,

meet them with my troublesome own.


My heart has never killed


its call

its call

its call


for you.
