| Smitten, he hears Dave Matthews Band |
| He is not himself. During this first break from sunshine the sky swells the way he had hoped, one day, it would. He even thinks rain and beauty are the same. He understands the purpose of the rose. "In your eyes I see what's on my mind," he hears. He finds the unassailable curiosity of change. He writes, "He pretends he knows but then explodes the truth," Imagines his pen's a rose stem, calls out, "Red clouds on a sweet gray day explode like hearts rotund with ardor." In an attempt to exaggerate my love for you, I realized, I can't. |
