The Cherry Tree


August 22, 2013


Inside of me inside of you

Blue.The ocean of your eyes

The windows to your Soul

Inside of me, Inside of you


Under the moon

Next to the cherry tree

Which bore the fruit

You gave to me


The warm air

Blankets me

Like I blanket you

And the green smells so sweet

As it’s delicately cool


Love. Peace. Freedom. One.


One morning. That morning

1.5

Years later


It came. Time.

We went

Time

Deceit


Black. The loss in your eyes. Gone

is the gold

Gone is the light


And in the darkness they fell

The soldiers are dead

It got you

It got in your head


Inside of me, inside of you

Next to the cherry tree

Where I imagine you

Blue were your eyes


Faded.


Now but a distant memory
