Last night I dreamt of you
Of course you hadn’t changed
Left unaged
Still free
Pure and wild
Bursts of creativity
Unchained by convention
Wearing what no-one else
Could dare wear
A blurry haze
Always smiling
Mischief and mayhem
Within lapis lazuli gaze
Brimming with wit
Infectious fun
Next to you I was clumsy
So very awkward
Picking up the sun
Left behind in your shadow
But I didn’t mind
If I wasn’t found
If others saw just you
Your voice the only sound
Untethered
Never challenged
Through my blinkered view
Inexplicable
Burning bright
I would always seek you
