"We know what we are, but not what we may be" - Shakespeare


the sun rises each
morning in your eyes,
a splitting image of a
beautiful composition.
With the blazing
light comes the
constellations of treasure
roaming free.
i found the oceans screaming
through me
like cries of desperation
reaching
out from the mouth
sheltering my own
with barbedwires 
i attempt
catching the words
with butterfly
nets before they
begin to escape
like inmates climbing the
wire fence of my throat
but I’m always too slow for
fluttering winged words.
the sun rises each morning
in your eyes.
the construction of a body
now sighs with each exhale.
