Her glossed lips and
the galaxies in her eyes
would forever be his anchor
through an ocean of deadening,
poisonous waves;
and
she would freeze time just to be his muse.
He captured bits of her in grey frames
so she could fill his dreams.
The warmth of his hands poured strength into
her glass bones;
her joyous aura made his heart flutter everyday .
She was the shade of red envied by everyone;
he was sinking to the pit of forest greens.
Love was sealed in secret packages;
only to be opened when hearts bleed with longing.
