The Moment I Saw You Again

The moment I saw you again, 

I grew colder.


The colder I grew, 

the darker I became.


I was afraid of my own reflection

and I was jealous of what I once was.


The moment I saw you again, 

I forgot how thick and luscious your eyebrows were,

I forgot how pretty you were

But I knew that something was way off.


Your blood was blue and your eyes were gray, 

your love was light but your favorite place was the day.


I wouldn't have known you 

if spirit never told me to take the road not wanted wear;

-for then, I wouldn't have known you

even if my sanity was right all along.
