Love Poem: Indigo Flame

Indigo Flame

I see you on a sunny day
On a California beach
On the roasting sidewalks
As the sun peaks behind the clouds
I see your arctic smile
And your eyes follow your grin
Spinning around in excitement 
With a yellow daffodil 
You yearn to make the city ours 

I smell your love as if we were falling backwards in a lavender field in France
While the sun sets
The wind blows your natural beauty at drift with the birds
Your scent is caged in my extravagant memory

I feel you right in my hands
As if I squeezed my palms and felt your heartbeat 
Enchanted and dazzled by your vibrations
I feel the glow of your skin
Covering and caressing my soul

Then my heart sunk...
My eyes closed 
And my thoughts rested
Waiting so that I could remember you again
...when I wake up
