Nocturnal Creature

A Boy With Roses

if this is our last goodbye, promise me you won't forget                                                        

how the rain dropped and cooled our skin                                                            

bathing in the crumbling façade of remote sunsets                                                              

 

sinking like a weathered stone in lucid dreaming                                                            

all those summers we spent talking by the trees                                                                

about hopeless dreams remind me we are not infinite                                                      

 

we are stars and dust                                                                                                    

time asunder with every heartbeat and every jaded breath                    

moon filled eventides stick to me like sea urchins                                                          

 

like lichen, like rhymes to my flesh                                                                                        

a little box of memories piercing through me like radio static                                                  

I never want this song to end.

    The image of sticking sea urchins is a sensory overload! Rhyming lichen and radio static raises the bar thereinafter! Quite the delight to read.
