the beautiful

don't give me flowers,
flowers eventually die,
and i see signs in everything.
don't give me chocolate,
it gives me stomachaches,
and i see signs in everything.
diamonds?
people die trying to find them.
call me atypical,
but all i want is your kiss,
indoors and out.
morning, noon and night.
kiss me in the rain
or on my doorstep while judy garland sings in the background.
"somewhere over the rainbow
way up high
there's a land that i heard of
once in a lullaby."
i see signs in everything.
