Crimson, plump lips

Set upon

Shaky, fragile hips

A blonde's appetite

For something

Less like life

If you do not go

I will digress

In to

Disgust

But I scratch at the surface

Naïve

Exploring our purpose

Cinnamon, storytelling freckles

Scattered amongst

Constellation trickles

From a sky

Who emulates

A mother's eyes

If you stay

I cannot watch

Not the dismay

Not on this day

Where everyday I pray

For you to never go away

I cannot watch

The pain that unravels

And the tears that I catch

And the treacherous journeys that we travel

All of this

In the name of you

You, the beautiful brunette

Me, the blonde daughter

Worlds

And

Universes

A part

But I scratch at the surface of an unforgiving galaxy

Assuming

I find you

The innerness

Lined with mostly faith and a bit of tragedy

From head to toe

Fiery aura and visibly seen scars

That heal when touched

Bright, bold smile

That dims when hurt

So much to see

From a sky

That protects

Like only a mother's heart can do

You can be seen watching me

While I reside deep inside

Your invisible breath
