stones for eyes.

By Exodus





A flower in the gutter.
Wind follows where it desires
And we spontaneously combust
Into stars oblivion, orange red and white
Running the way to your heart.
I stopped at the door and fell down the hole in my head.

Somewhere I lost myself again before falling in love with you.

    "I stopped at the door and fell down the hole in my head.": marvellous. I agree with Lynaes completely, and i really like the title too.

    An enchanting, rich use of imagery. And such a striking way of expression. I can feel this one very much, such a perfect description. Gorgeous work. ~L
