Into The Sunset

You make me smile.
From that early morning message,
to that silly joke.
From that giggly poke,
to that sudden kiss.
You make me smile on the inside.

We sit and dream together.
Intoxicated, we laugh at the castles we built on clouds,
some blue, some pink.
And then it rains, and rains, and rains non-stop.
And we don't seem to need anything else.
Perfectly content.

We watch a scary movie,
only so we can kiss in the dark.
And then we look into each other's eyes and burst out laughing.
Because the seriousness is funny.

I'd peck you on the nose,
while looking into your beautiful, beautiful eyes.
Then suddenly I feel like melting into you.

When I flicker back at 4 am.
I like you there.
Tangled up in me,
while the sun streamed down through water droplets like crystals.
Such that you glowed.
I was so happy.

White froth crashing against the sea rocks,
under a blue sky I can't name.
You take in my scent,
and try to be discreet.
Might as well have inhaled me.

I want to wear a tiara,
I want to paint unicorns,
but purple.
I want to lay back and watch the parakeets gliding,
and maybe hold your hand.

Macaroons and Ben & Jerry's.
Take me away.
Someplace we can do all of it and not be watched.
We run and we run and we never stop.
I'm smiling again.
And I don't wanna stop feeling it, thinking it, or saying it.

I have a feeling I make you smile.
