Silence in the Suburbs

He seems dark, eyes sweet like cyanide candy canes. He leans to sit and stares at her dress, it looks like dirty lemonade. The sun is white; and they sit and wait for the parade on a coarse black curb that smells of fate. They sat for one hundred years and a day. They sat and watched their days away, just thinking… about the shadow sitting next to them, but not speaking. Away… goes the hot white sun, it’s a winter day and they’re thinking, like their silent breathes that play. Forever waiting for the parade and just thinking.
