i tattoo
your visage
upon my cornea
so beauty infuses my day
your name
upon my tongue
so every word i speak is love
even then
i am aware
of the falsehood
inherent in dream
the falsehood
that makes up
my daily routine
i love you
don’t take it upon yourself
to tell me
how it will never be
i am
a self aware creature
i know
‘liked’

This is interesting, I wrote a poem about tattooing the name to the heart, yours an eye. I think they’d work well side by side, I like your take, beautifully done.

Yes Yes Yes! Words from my own heart. That last section especially. I know what I want won’t be a reality but still…. I AM a dreamer….
