castles in the air

throwing back your head laughing at the
floating clouds engulfing the
drifting cerulean sky
laughing to cover the suffocation of
clouds/ being so hopelessly in love
happy about
the jokes/ your eyes darling
they are cutting me up
the bare winter branches sown
delicately across the
hues of cream and blue
my mind leaves at first sight
your words dance across my
eyes in morning light
flickering neon signs
drifting paling hearts
the superb emptiness of it all
the reminder of worthwhileness in
a shock treatment called
love
