lying in my room
long after everyone has fallen asleep
i listen to an old song
my lights are red and green and blue and yellow
and i'm thinking of you
blue for you
yellow for me
green for the summer
red for that cherry lollipop
memories drift through my head
as did the balkan sea when i listened to your love from across the world in august.
lying
floating
dreaming
in the blue sea
blue for you.
now i turn over
reach for the plastic cord and intertwine them.
blue for you. yellow for me.
99p lights promise me a superstitious sense of security.
your hands my ankles.
your lips my eyes.
my love your love,
my fingers your hands.
blue for you.
in your bed, my heart
my park, your kiss
your park, my hesitation
your hands, my hair
my arms, your shoulders
my lips, your neck
yellow for me.
i promise you a painfully finite infinity,
and that is all i have to offer although somehow, it's enough.
