My Wave

Folder: 
Old

It was dark... but still I could make you out...

Traces of lightly sketched sounds

All around the warmth of your heaven.

Oh god, you're my merry go round

Endlessly spinning, weaving the thoughts that I wish I was sinning...



Pale moonlight creeps into our darkened room

And makes a silhouette of your skin

Akin to the goddess that you hold within...

Pressing my body against the crease in your thigh

Meeting your lips... Making intersection with your eyes

And noting the tiny bags fleshed out underneath

For all of the times you suffered deception...

As I admire your every imperfection...

Every section that's lacking proportion

And the steps that you take in staggering motion

Only set you apart from the rest of the ocean...

My special... special... wave...

Magnificent crest... And the rest

Blue like the sky that we pave

And the god that we paint inside it to save...

My beautiful... beautiful... wave...

How you ripple my blood..

And trickle it up my spine for a tickle I'm so glad is mine...



Finest silk of your hands run over my lips coarse as the desert sand...

In awe of the stretched out plains of land

That make up your stare...

Your breath and your cries and...

How they blend with your mouth and your hair

Like rolls of grass with the April horizon...

My special... special... tree...

Standing alone amidst the endless zone of greenery.

Claiming every sundrop as your own...

Oh what it means to be specially grown...

Oh what it means to me

That you would make it exclusively seen to me...



Wrinkles that seem they were penciled in

Right by your nose...

And eyebrows of sullen skies

Shape in a form so morose

To demonstrate how your tale goes...

To show me the weight of the boulder you bore...

Trail worn winds that sing on your shoulders...



Smile that tells a tragic story

Yet comforts all the while

And explains to me through allegory

Every step... every mile... that led to your sorrow and glory...

And makes it known that when I approach the warmth of your glow

I may at once mutter through breathless worry

Trying to define through a stutter this eu -- euph --- euphori ---

Ahhhhh...

My somber wave... You've drowned me again...
