my melancholy tastes like bittersweet

my heart sings to pang these days
it's just a momentary lapse
in reason
i know
and as i wait for the bluebird of happiness
to swoop down and take me
i bide my time with a spanish dancer
her gait keeps me distracted
my melancholy tastes like
bittersweet
as i swallow it back down
keeping it inside of me
safe
close
hidden
gazing out the window
waiting for something
to happen
my mind finds you
through the dissonance
and my heart draws
a slow deep breath in
it's your smile
that kills...
