Unrequited Love
You place me in the corner
Next to your perfect summer day
With cotton candy for eyes
I call to out to you to play.
Your limbs stretch like vines
I am your abandoned home
My windows are cracked and dirty
Yet faithful I hope you’ll come.
The hinges on the door sing
My sonnet of innocence lost
I stalk the shadows like a ghost
A ballet for the king of frost.
Through mirrors I see you and her
Joined laughter like bliss and birds
The rain streaming down the windows
Is a pathway I cried when I heard.
