Unreal

Why do good things come when you stop looking for them?

By Tim WortonPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Discovered you akin the cobalt rush

Lingered kisses zest like a pineapple

Blessed me when summer started to rust

Now shaping rings for Spring at the chapel

.

My job was bleak, your skin was visceral

Kindness refreshed my heart's natural state

Stoic fever numb, I was miserable

Life shines helping your lover find their place

.

Rays from the sun compared themselves to me

My inner child heard me release rejoice

Sync your hands on me like a calming sea

Say what you think of me with your chest voice

.

Heaven for eyes, for once I just feel seen

Earth's alive, I found my Sonnet Eighteen
