a mind devoted so completely to you

a mind devoted so completely to you--


a symphony ignites in my mind

the world gleams pure white

innocence

gifts of warmth and rosy cheeks

helium in my lungs and i'm floating

the safety and protection of an anchor


but the anchor gouges into the sand

and the white gleam becomes blinding

and you never noticed it before

but the sky had crashed down to become

a prison

the torsion of hope

of a future


and i'm afraid that i have just become

a reflection of you

and maybe your sky has crashed down as well

and maybe the world has become

a little too bright

and the symphony

a little too loud.
