someday i'll look at this and laugh (combust)

by heather - Taurus

no, im not perfect, my guts are
trailing outside of me.
you, with those eyes
like the color of condensed sky, a smile
to kill and a body so
frail.  maybe this explains your
enigma, your flawless presence.
darling, i could stare at you until sunrise.
i could lay myself like a broken dove 
down at your feet if only to breath 
the same numbing
intoxication.  but i'll watch
the smoke from our entwining cigarettes
curl together and combust
like the torrid emotions wracking
my brains;
if only.

Reason for writing:

    a massive, raging crush, and all the stereotypical emotions that go along with it! :)
