i have grey eyes,
the kind people like
to hide away in their pockets
and keep for later;
and they don't sparkle,
they cause explosions
of dust and all the things you need.
and darling, i want to spin
around the outside
of a building
where my name is written
on the sidewalks
and in the carpet.
my fingernails dont match
in length or color,
and neither do my clothes,
but i can love you
just the same.

Ahaha oh, I love the ending
I always paint my nails different colors, and I think it's impossible for them to be exactly the same length x] it's also very sweet.
Your beginning is wow ! And even though you're talking about your eyes, it still kind of tells me other things about you. It was just all around amazing, very creative, and I just love it
Best of luck !
