I want to sail the aegean sea with you Cheap wine and candles enough for us two On a small white boat, just comfortable Not too expensive, just functional We ride the waves and hold each other The sounds of lovers and the boats rutter We dance to soft sweet sea sounds We whisper with no one around The stars are silly they glow and die But not true lovers, like you and I We wake up, sit down on the deck The world is all a horrid mess But i feel you their and i am unaware I sit, observe, in my plastic chair I hear the birds pray for love They sing so sweetly up above I lay and bask In the rains of loss With an umbrella of love laid across And in its shade We lay and lust We fall in love And ignore the cost

Dear lover,
I aligned my pace to the crowd. I fit in. It seemed like I had finally found the right lubricant to squeeze into the system I was previously unaware of. It calmed me, being part of the tide, I rippled and swayed with them. I would live by them now. Die by them. Yet no matter where I went I always had an itching. An itching that I would lose them. So I lost me. So I could keep them. Soon I was them, and they were me. The placid rooftop they provided was nice. The support they gave was good. The foundation I had laid my very soul upon was well intended. Not grand, nor regal. But nice. Not beyond, or captivating. But good. Not lovely, or awe inspiring. But well intended. Not what I would like. But who was I? I was them. And they liked it.
