You came to me in a dream last night, as curious and full of life as the day I met you on the playground. 

It was the first week of preschool and I had no friends, mostly because I chose not to.

“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” 
— Friedrich Nietzsche

I saw someone

In the airport. 

I wonder what kind of mind lies behind those big brown eyes,  

behind her laugh, which makes the sweetest souls swoon, 

behind her smile, infectious and sugar sweet. 

yet through it all, 

I wanted to stay there forever

Under that tree with you.

I wanted to lie there

Live beneath the sky's blue.

I wanted to look at the constellations at night

And name the clouds' shapes in the daytime.

Irreplaceable

Is us

You and I

Together

Joking and laughing from things like the weather

To ghost cows and weird books and crazy ideas

To fanfictions and emails and drafts we'll never send.

i remain seated in my simple pink chair. my fingers probe at the keyboard of this computer, and i begin to type freely.
