ephemeral cascade, ode to the forever blue
that laments before me. obtuse waves no
more forlorn than I acquiesce in perpetual
melancholy as my vision fades to black.
I find sanctuary behind closed lids, and my
breaths are shallow and liquid, like a lullaby
of dissonant unrest composed of you.

I see your taciturn complexion, fastened
with lips arranged into a papier-mâche
smile, both equally modest and reticent.
the sharp syllables of our whispers hiss
at my ears in multidimensional complexity,
and I begin to realize the unrealized;
may our silences be faceless effigies.

ephemeral cascade, ode to the forever yellow
that blisters before me. boundless topography no
more wayward than I pervades in obtrusive
accumulation as my vision tiredly returns to me.
I find detachment with eyes wide open, and my
breaths are strangled and parched, like a desert
of confounded vexation contrived of you.
