Verse 32

You remind me of
the freshman girl
from Dazed and Confused
with your big blue eyes
hanging like moons that
only illuminate peace lillies
and truth roses
and when they shine on me
I'm no longer that kid
throwing his long stringy hair
behind his ears, and
getting his ass kicked
by seniors,
but a lake, reflecting your peace
for anyone looking for some quiet
