Benevolent et al

In the brightly glowing March sun
To have been lost in a benevolent tranquil
It must be the mountain air, 
   that paints your face
Or is it my mind, 
   at a confluence in witness
If you were at an arms length, 
   While I would wish
There is only utter failure I gauge,
    for me and my words
To stutter and stammer, 
    mid speech, even at greeting
Lost in stare, 
   watching how the oxidized earrings sway
Knowing me, 
   I would have spoken of colours
Overly and mindfully jealous
   of your embroidered blue dress
Only to be at a lapse 
   to fumble at making sentences
While your eyes look at me 
   Dissolving me into nothingness
