I wish we could live in an apartment in New York City,
where the sun would always shine as dawn breaks
and large windows would illuminate the room with sultry hues of gold,
or even in the winter where frost would climb the glass
as we huddle under the covers to stay warm.
Yellow taxis
neon lights
lilac sunsets.
That’s the dream.
And it all starts
And ends
With you.

and the inability of your love
to remain silent.

Yet, ash of your short-lived undying love
falls to the ground
As gravity works its compelling lull.
