The galaxy in her eye

I think roses root in their own scent searching for the thing just out of reach 
We attach our feelings to our mind But it is in the air we find the hope
The roses don’t think about planets but we do naming the unnameable things in the nothing

The first time I saw blue I was nothing   an empty vessel for the cosmos 
The first time I saw blue 

I wondered who do we think we are in this world 

Surely not an empty vessel for the stars 

We watch time in its perpetual turning 

Sinking into the emptiness sinking sinking 

The only thing left behind is your lost dress floating in my memories 

I can feel you searching for yourself 

Among the rushing river 

The wet splashes like wishes on your already blue pants staining them bluer 

The general hum thrums through my mind like the flickering light fading into the dark

As the hours pass so does time And all we do is watch

So take out the swords and sleep 

For these 

Are the differences that define the you and I
