Notice Me

did you know he came all the way from there yeah, I know I saw that too what he brought I bet you can’t see it if you squint look closer beneath the sunshine can you see his lavender thoughts squeeze your eyes shut, I like it when they crinkle the way your skin tingles maybe then you can feel maybe it’s just me can you feel the oils rubbing together have you touched his hand no, not held it but felt the warm glow all the clementines and apricots melting together, dripping down into the gutter look closer I saw the tire tracks I pressed my fingers in that cold raw mud I hated it and it stained my fingers but don’t we all just want to be noticed in the right way?
