eternally ephemeral [ poetry & prose ]

An Intricate Mess

Gracing the fingertips
with the cool wind
the sensations travelling
up to my spine
I take in the crisp air
feeling the rush of life
hault to a breezy pause
as I take a moment
to take it all in,
the beauty
of the simplest things
life has offered
the vividness of
the blindingly
screaming colors
of the world,
the echoes of the
breathless laughters
chanting in the ears,
the tantalizing aroma
of grinded coffee
lingering in the air,
the rush of the
morning hours
as everyone
with a heartbeat
blurred through it all.

But you.

You're an intricate
mess of everything
I wished upon
the stars for.

And you,
the most significant
blessing life has
offered me.
