My Pin Up

We look out to see 
What crystal balls hold   
And we day dream over  utopia 


It is better that way, leisure away 
Time so precious, indulging   
On alternate universe


My pin up girl  
Like the stars afar  
In the distance of the heavens 


Set as background  drop
For your spectacles of beauty  
But do not transform into flesh  


For with that, in reality 
I will come to know your imperfections 
Your weakness, your darkness 


Be forever in my desire  
Please do not come close  
Your star nearing earth to have gravity 


Spare me the reality of your actuality  
Allow me, to just day dream of your perfection  
A fine figment of my imagination  


Stay lined, aligned in parallel worlds   
Be Hollywood, be glitter, starstruck      
Allow me to day dream, my pin up girl

    Love the poem and love the picture. This had to be my favorite verse.

    Spare me the reality of your actuality,
    Allow me, to just day dream,
    Just a figment of my imagination

    I love to lose myself in my imagination, it's a great place to be. Well expressed and penned.

    Very insightful, Kodjo. Sometimes the closer we get, the less thrilling it becomes. On the other hand...

    Wise words, lest we get too close and blur the visions created from afar.
