She’s my best friend: The record I’ve been listening to on repeat
1) Hideaway
A wet drizzle that
made way to snowflakes on pink noses
we walked with a wolf pup by our sides
She had snow on her dark coat like constellations in the night
and was frolicking through grass the color of burnt orange sunsets
and trees like mountains
the fog that morning made everything brighter
the yellow, orange, and green hues
shined on you face like magic
A cigarette in my fingers
and small smile on my lips
You said the snow fell on our hair
like fairy dust
And I thought we were walking through another realm
we stopped
climbed in a hole back to get back home
found out home looked like wonderland too
the snow falling so silently
through the mist
it was magic
when we got back inside
I put a record on
while you made hot chocolate
You came bundled up in a blanket just my color
and we sipped
like kittens do
with my favorite song on the stereo
and our hands together
2.) Living, together
Her horse moves like fog
she tells me when she was 5
she'd point to the moon and call it hers
so now she wears it on her necklace
and after her moon drops and we slip to sleep
our dance begins
it's like this every weekend, but this time is special
she rides a white horse like a cloud
he's spotted grey and looks like ash falling like rain on snow
He is lovely
And she says that a horse always knows what sort of people to keep around
which is why she knew he'd love me
he had a saddle stitched from starlight with a braided tail and granite colored joints
she rides him in braided pigtails and a smile
and she may not believe me but I've never seen her more beautiful
than here
3.) Tree skeletons
we found the wonderland again when fog fell over us
it's soft whisps like
fingers
they danced across trees
and the occasional house
and we drove like this until a stream from along
the road with dark spotted shadows
made it's soft waves
that called to our ears
The trees around us
had all lost their leaves
and the trunks moved
like skeletons in the wind
it was the perfect place
to hide away
we felt so fearless
we wondered from our wolf
her large frame worn out
from all the constellations in her eyes
soon the smoke twirled across our faces
like paint in water
beautiful like the rest of the day
the stream and the wind
melodic under our voices
I never wanted this moment to end
