A Better Place

I wished to live
in the world I glimpse
in passing
in a snatch of music
a satin raindrop
or a starlit night
the place beyond the ugliness

I wished my life away
for a better place
only to find
it already existed
in your eyes
and your touch

and your heart

Beneath this mask of sparkling words, I am nothing. So forgive me for raising your hopes.

bloodredtears Legend I don't entirely think I've had enough rum to allow that kind of talk.
