Blümchen

Somewhere in between the clashing colors
I find a simple purple flower
Its clean scent sweetly wafting through my head

Nothing else can take this moment away
Of knowing that you'll stay
Another day, another night
That I'm not alone

The haze of crazy hangs low in the room
A palpable dread
And you, this shining silhouette
Attracting me, distracting me from all else

I want to water this moment
So that it never dies
And keep you in a vase by the door

The Weekend

Three whole days of not saying hello
Not seeing your eyes dance with irony
Not hearing your voice

That soft, low voice
Dripping with gravity and density

Three whole days of the rest of my life
Other friends who satisfy my needs
Of going out and laughing
Of drinking and flirting
Of talking about our thoughts and ideas

I wonder what you do
On the other side of the city
If it's as fun as what we have together
If there was someone else
Who made you forget me

Even if just for a moment
You forgot me and my smile
And only wanted to kiss her lips

I guess I'll never know
What you do without me
Because you only give me friendly looks
You only give me
Something you think you can handle

When actually you can handle me
And all my intricacies
The minor perfections and golden quirks
And if you were to gaze a bit more deeply
You'd see that I see you
I'm just as scared as you are
