East Coast Boy
May 28, 2014
Blue eyes
Fingers easing through his tousled black hair
Forming perfect waves
19 years inked into his arms
The dirty kind of beautiful
Face unshaven for probably weeks
Cigarette dangling from his carless lips
City lights in his eyes
He looks so alive
Best work of art
In the whole damn city
