"melodic phrases of ethereal beauty"

whispers in the dark
breathless and laced with a song
humming quietly in the morning
pale yellow light casting bright shadows
on golden, sun kissed skin
dots on his flushed cheeks
pink like rosy cherry blossoms
the dent at the side of his smile
woven fingers under the covers
glass boy, you can see right through him
fragile boy, no please don't break him
sweet boy, sugary soft lips
broken boy, let's put you back together
walking through a faceless crowd
empty gazes, looking down
but a halo of curls
dark lashes framing eyes
coffee from burgundy to golden brown
drowning in melted chocolate
happy, with words in your mouth
glowing cheeks, smile more
when he cries it breaks my heart
stars spilling over, curling down his neck
an expanse of honey colored skies
tasting like purple rain
roses blooming from his wrists
staining the tiles blood red
i brought him daisies
we planted a new garden of flowers
gentle boy, like a summer breeze
lovely boy, watercolor paintings and pink sunsets
blue boy, shadows growing in his bones
precious boy, so afraid to be alone
invisible angel wings
feathery, cotton white angel wings
he doesn't like to play those keys
free the music from his dreams
only i get to see
when he falls into a melody
singing so soft, lullaby soft
playing soft songs when all are asleep
stomach and thighs, he's beautiful
darling, sweetheart, my love
when he loses himself
i promise I won't lose him
tracing patterns with my thumbs
i kiss his tears away
i traced universes over his shoulder blades
coloring every single scar
sunshine boy, light up the world
angel boy, from crystal skies
pretty boy, warm cheeks pink lips
rainbow boy, with rainbow scars
he is ethereal

You are all angels and you are all ethereal. Keep your smile love doves. You deserve to be happy. Eat and stay hydrated! I love youuuuu!
