women. in their beauty is also danger.
women. they're so remarkable.
I love them.
(for the strong beautiful women in the world)

in the blackened sky
I see her across from me
with her cigarette lit
and her hand grasped tightly
around a wine glass.

she's so mysterious.
I want reach out
and grab her
but even with
our close distance
she is much further than I.

an invisible barrier that
blocks her entirety
from me.

I want her.
I so desperately need her.

But when she looks,
I cannot help but think
she's fine on her own.
that even if I approached
she would smile and walk away,
leaving me in a state of desperate bliss.

She holds millions of words with a single gaze
and I can see
how deep behind the eye
and deep in her heart
is a piercing sword
ready to attack.

it's telling me to look away.

it telling me that she's
so remarkably fatal
that falling for her is a battle
I would gladly fight.
