The Sighting

Rippling pastel, clean clear world ender
Fantasy blue, I can’t look away
That auburn tress, that neck 
Moving close hope escapes
My closing throat tries to deny
I see you wore your glasses 
I wore mine too 
It doesn't matter (a lie) It’s only a cover
The coolest that ever burned
Slowly doubtingly moving ahead
Life will never be the same again

Goosebumps again! A precious moment of connection depicted. Your flair, your search and deliver bounces with poignancy. Love the beginning set up, rippling, fantasy blue.
