do you see her drowning
slowly
soundlessly
in the star-inked sky
the way you love her
is the way you lose her
vague lines
written a c r o s s a page
dents in sane premises
your heart tugs
your brain leaves
because meaninglessness is futile
why do you smile in the sunshine?
does the sun love you that much?
