Past the humming tractor
Under the edges of sunlight
Tangerine lips and those baby blue eyes
Come after me and my disturbed world
Be apart of my future
Bond me to you
Flannel shirts, that citrus smell
The symmetrical line of our chemistry
Should be one, in the dark soil of this twisted earth

While I was reading the first few lines I actually smiled. Haha, it's a nice poem, but what I like the most about this poem is that pinch of sweetness in every line. :)

I loved the way you have described the orange grove! beautiful words used there with good imagery. But i didn't understand the last two lines clearly enough. 4.5/5!

I love it. It's emotional and the imagery you used really painted a picture in my head.
