lilac beds




i am not what you promised i would be. i am higher and lower and farther away. kiss me and tell me how tall i will grow with you. make a promise: believe or understand. do not hate me for what i cannot do/love me for what i can: i am waiting. how icy will your lips be tomorrow, unwilling to keep or grab what is deserved. reach out!; refer to me as "she," "her," "mine." snow means we stay indoors. sun means we shall greet the day with halos and coffee. how many pairs of feet does it take from your door to mine? am i too late?
