The Happiest Frivol

Dusk 
brings a sense of calm
Sultry tones of his laugh 
rent my headspace
Wrap around my fingers 
like a lightning rod
Flush my face with fantasies 
but none are rated family
And my juvenile self wonders
What it's like 
to be consumed by love...

I think I'm close.

I for one
I’m being strangled
by the radiance of his half-life essence.
Ubiquitous beauty,
bleeding through my AMOLED screen.
To truly appreciate it
I need this in 4D.
4D? Why not 3D?
Because... for me 
I want to exist beside his.
If my beginning and end are the same,
I’d want them both to have his.
And if I spent it all for his
I’d be the happiest frivol.
