simple pleasure

Your kisses can take me away, someplace else

another dimension, only we know.

Your eyes usher me in, piercing my soul

looking away would only hurt me more

Tell me how you light the darkness up,

and how you bring flames underwater.

How does the winter seem like springtime?

and rain seem like sunlight?

Dark wood burning

and the smell of candles

Deserted streets

and the break of dusk.

I see you in the most delicate things.

When it is mundane

you are there to make it,

extraordinary.
