universe swallows me
universe tucks me away
away from reality
away from ugliness
ugliness is scary
ugliness is filthy
filthy minds
filthy hands
hands that paint
hands that touch
touch the stars
touch the skies
skies too far
skies so blue
blue light eyes
blue black gaze
gaze at moon
gaze like fawn
fawn so sweet
fawn so soft
soft like earth
soft as sun
sun so yellow
sun turned orange
orange lips
orange smile
smile please
smile everyday
everyday is a gift
everyday is a chance
chances too less
chances like cabs
cabs don't wait
cabs go so soon
soon as in seconds
soon as in now
now get in,
now you go
go in the cab
go till it drops you
you are a gift
you are their treasure
treasure every moment
treasure their love
love a dark soul
love with your heart
heart so bright
heart so light
bright...
light...____
