Perfect and Gentle
Mechanical owl eyes clicking,
Watching. You're perfect and gentle.
I made parts of songs for you,
A pair of hearts, and also, a bite-size for you.
Sometimes I lose my sight of you.
It seems to me you've been leaving things behind.
I bought the same sheets as you,
Pieces of pieces of me and some pieces
Of you.
Mechanical owl eyes clicking,
Watching. Blinking. Exploring.
Humidity clings me a desperate lover.
Mechanical love-shapes beating,
Clicking, testing the immobility
Of a chain link hope.
Pink morphs itself, reflecting orange. The pelicans dive.
There's a place where the sky is almost white before it disappears.
Memories left by the wayside return to the earth on their own.
Still, I had wanted everything to be so nice.
Mechanical owl eyes clicking.
You're perfect and gentle, my apple.
I have parts of songs for you,
I'll sing for you. I'm watching, still
I may lose sight of you.
