at the bottom of everything ~ bright eyes

by the light of day,
my lips are near,
but my heart is far away."

with my poison arms around you."

all the way to new york city ~ rosie thomas

"you could write for picture shows,

our cheeks as pink as wild roses."

for our shadows cast side by side;

that you exist and are mine."
