i wake up
with your smell in my brain
from hours of fruitless dreaming
rootless intoxication
your imagined eyebrow raised
in amused mockery
of my futile attempts
at normalcy
your absent eyes
glinting black and laughing
pierce through the sheath
of my cultivated indifference
i tear myself
from your rodinesque frame
head arms back
chiselled in perfect symmetry
in my bronzed mind
your mirage mouth
flashes a lightning smile
to blaze through the dark bylanes
of my labyrinthine soul
you traverse
my desert heart
through daylight dreams
and night-time awakenings
a bell-jar perfection
insulated
from this bleeding reality
that’s mine

wonderful. the best part is, it reflects the soul of your protagonist most precisely, perfectly. any other words used would have diminished the feel. :-)) very neat.
