Static

The only way to see is to not look at all 

With your face facing forward, and back to the wall

I see your intentions by the smile on your face

A deafening grin for my finger to trace

Please tell me, what are you expecting to find

A summertime twist and a lavender shine?

I'll bookmark your photo away in my thoughts

But first I must clear away all of these knots

They strangle the mind and clutter my brain

A pot made of clay filling up with fresh rain

To wash over your face and drip down to your lips

Your teeth with their whispering, glistening tips

So how is it that someone who's practically blind

Is carelessly wandering through my mind?

I felt this one, like your choice for rhyme and rhythm make me feel the hurt in this piece. I like that contrast, it's written rhymey like it should be a nice sweet piece but it checks you into reality. I enjoyed this.
Try maybe messing around with the format? my eyes got lost in the big hunk of text.
But otherwise, I'm excited to read your other work!

Thanks for the suggestion! Most of the time when I write these it's either on my phone or laptop so I just write them down without putting a lot of thought into the layout. I'm still pretty new to using formatting to evoke different feeling.
