Subtle Bass

--

In my mind, you sound like a bass guitar.

Speaking a sort of scratchy melody,

the way you whisper your way through life

in a yelling manner.

I feel you skewing my impressionable vision,

like sun bleeding through stained glass.

Your gaze gnaws softly at the tops of my cheekbones,

I can’t help but look away.

A culmination of introspection, sweet nothings, and loud opinions.
