Refraction Duplex
Amid distractions and detours I found you,
In hindsight? It could never be fast enough.
Your raspy whisper was just slow enough,
each phrase uttered I wanted on repeat.
Not a single lyric could I not repeat,
with skin frozen in goosebumps I cringe.
Titillating sweat doesn’t make me cringe,
a short circuiting heart’s sign I can’t ignore.
The mundane is so easy to ignore,
stop blinding me with all that refraction.
Matching a storm lit with refraction,
passion’s impossible to take eyes off of.
With perfect focus and a lack thereof,
amid distractions and detours I found you.
