Never before have I
developed such depth
as I have with a puff of your breath
The dry air was filled with
bluish-gray smoke
and I couldn't believe when the
butterfly spoke
The moon was a dandelion in
all the wrong places
and I wasn't surprised when you
and I traded faces
Tell me again flower child
of our mysterious flee
as we fly back to our dream in the
hazy green tree

Words can not describe how much I love this poem. This is amazing. Honestly, I wish I would have wrote this. It's so clever and different. Different is such a good qualitity to have because A LOT of the poems on Teen are about the same things over and over again. I'm favoriting this. Btw I love the doors quote on your profile.
