DRIED FALLEN LEAVES CRUNCHED BENEATH OLD BLACK BOOTS / BABY DANDELION BLOWN SOFTLY WITH THE BREEZE / PITIFUL FIGURE HUNCHED FORLORNLY UNDER THE FOLIAGE / SILLAGE OF FRESH MORNING AIR MIXED WITH PINE TREE SCENT / SMUDGED LIPSTICK ON DRY CHAPPED LIPS / SPLIT BLOODIED SKIN ON WOUNDED KNUCKLES / EYES SHOOK AND SQUINT IN ANXIETY AND FEAR / THE LITTLE TEAR IN THE SWEAT SHIRT'S CHEST / TRAILS OF DRIED SALTY TEARS ON DIRTY PALE CHEEKS
YOUR CRIES / YOUR HICCUPS / YOUR TREMBLING FINGERS / YOUR CLENCHED FISTS / YOUR SCARS BENEATH YELLOW SLEEVES / YOUR CHIPPED TOENAILS WITHIN WORN OUT BOOTS / YOUR BILLOWING WILD HAIR / YOUR MISTY EYES / YOUR ATHENA MIND / YOUR WARRIOR ARMS / YOUR MELLOW VOICE / YOUR DELIGHTFUL LAUGHS / YOUR CONSTELLATION FRECKLES / YOUR BUTTON NOSE / YOUR ROSE SCENTED SMELL BETWEEN YOUR NECK AND YOUR SHOULDER / YOUR LOUD THOUGHTS / YOUR CURVES AND EDGES / YOUR BUTTERFLY KISSES
THIS IS WHAT I WANT FROM YOU / THIS IS MY SINNER'S PRAYER / LET ME SEE YOU / OR LET ME BE
