Lovely is a
lovely word
that should be
used more often.
Before
tasteful wishes
turn to
everlasting 99 cent
dreams.
Before
velvet scars
and nostalgic smiles.
Please away with
sad eyes
and
resurfacing memories.
Already restless dustbunnies
are in my brain
hopping around
spilling all enclosed
reminiscence.
Making weak hands
go over
my glass eyes.
Asking shivering darkness
to hold
me awhile.
Maybe then
when pried away
with a
redeemed heart.
I will hear
that
lovely,
lovely
word.
