Electronic Lilies

You light up
like the statue of liberty
the Top of the world
Scaling through
the ridges the no bars the always entries
left ventricle right ventricle
to the Top of my
heart

When I'm with you
my eyes are always puffy
squinted and narrowed
formed into curves of girlish crushes

This cloud of sadness that settles over
dining at dusk
a promise a plan
a date?

She said a friendship can't be sustained if
feelings
are involved
