Fine lines,
Perforated edges,
Mix matched fabrics,
Organized expectations.
Boldness tracing the pout of your lips,
Deceit spilling thru your finger tips,
Conjured thoughts without emotion,
Substance lacking depth,
Treading between fantasy and reality,
Everything I knew missed footnotes,
Everything I heard missed conviction,
Everything I felt missed yearning,
Everything I thought missed structure.
Organized expectations,
Mix matched fabrics,
Perforated edges.
Were the lines a fixation of my imagination?
Everything I thought missed structure.
Everything I felt missed yearning.
Everything I heard missed conviction.
Everything I knew missed footnotes.
You were the woman I dreamed about,
Now I question the validity of my subconscious.
