Entranced inside a mist near the seaside

Hypnotized by the regal splendor of it all

The perfumed breeze, the buzzing bees, the tantalizing sun

He was innate, born from  a child's laughter

His eyes were a psychotropic whimsy

Pools of clear blue

Distant yet almost too close

I was annoyed when he cared

Yet entranced when he fell silent

If I could rewind time I would paint a different picture

Him & I would forget about the world

Our minds like a tangle of seaweed, lost within each other

Forgetting the mercilessness of mankind

Painting rainbows, falling into rabbit holes

We wouldn’t care about the ticking clocks that passed us by

Because at that moment, nothing else would matter

For it would just be us
