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.
