Shadows of Becoming

wrapped in shadows of becoming,
I am inviting
future lovers
and four leaf clovers, reminiscing
over unkissed lips and
unseen skies,
uncharted
territories, vast
open landscapes.
wrapped in shadows of becoming,
I am tailoring
this new skin, and peeling
off layers
of shadows and dust
beneath my eyelids as they
tremble with the scent
of dreaming, like the lilacs
who's sweetness
I've yet
to touch
