Iris

[pencinks]

Iris, and I've seen you again
staring like a joke to my silence
and the smile that melts me...
slowly, and man am I scalded again?
hot chocolate that warms my heart.

I am now being sucked in a limbo of slumber...
Iris, and my foolish excuses for goodbyes
are now becoming hellos, again and I'm worried,
thinking it will only slip away so fast

I'd be humming melodies of regret
for not uttering a word, thunderous
throbs that deafens me...

that awakens my snore of a beautiful dream ...
Iris, why am I dumbfounded and speechless
by your sight that disarms me...
the strength and resolve slowly wastes
away and now I can only grin...dreaming

that there'd be sunset beyond the horizon...
ending for another day...hoping foolishly.

which may take me back to the reality...
