opera blossoms.
brought by a friend.
sat down, waited.
snow white drapes,
lavender-blue eyes.
spotlight on,
whole stage lit by your flame.
you sang; no stains
in your melodies; no restraints
on these floating notes.
you looked at me.
not at me, in my direction.
and this time you looked at me.
not in love, in kindness.
day to day friendly stare,
knowing me for the first time.
i fell asleep,
long before the stare.
those before you were,
say, monotonous.
sorry,
didn't wake to catch
your precious fire.
woke to a theatre in flames,
panicked, ran to rescue,
fell into an ocean of blues,
your eyes,
lavender-blue ocean.
friend tells me about your stare,
i flipped,
but i'm holding your body,
now a thousand pedals
burnt in flames.
