"Hold you birds your silver throats, His golden voice I'm seeking"
See,
your voice
your smooth rasping voice
lulls me to sleep
Oh,
to fall asleep
in the cozy little caves
in the valleys
in the landscape
of your voice
to cover the glass, of my
darkened
distressed
debilitated
eyes
with the drapes of your voice
to cover the skin, of my
caving
crying
chilling
body
with the quilt of your voice

Her love
grabs me by the reins.
grasps my heart
clutching. and letting go.
clasping. and letting go.
pumping life.
teaching me to breathe.
Her name
music. lofi. song.
pouring rain. cracking fire.
hands. holding hands.
warmth.
Her
more than
fibers. sinews.
skin. flesh.
bone.
Her
elegance. freedom. and
everything I know.
Her
everything I know

There was a time,
I thought that there was more music in the high-pitched giggle of your laugh,
than the chanting of chanticleer at dawn.
I thought,
While stargazing at your honey eyes,
that they had more color,
than the sun's splash of gold in a summer morn
Your head on my shoulder, lips zipped in sleep drawing in your dimples,
I thought,
I was more peaceful than I would have been,
lying in the fold of nature staring through the green web of leaves and branches, into the bluest of bluest skies
I fancied,
that kissing you under the sun's pale imposter,
would set my heart on a gracious ballet,
than serenading myself in a cold bath
I was convinced,
that your love made me more drunk,
than I would ever have been,
on life
But now,
now,
I know better

naked,
dangling in the blue wavy ocean water,
I see them, as small as planes of paper,
your feet,
pure, unadulterated,
slapping the water with raw, unbridled passion,
and power,
I see them,
waltzing confusedly,
in the romantic semi-darkness of prom night,
when they knew, you knew not, how to dance.
even now,
in the small hours of the night,
I see them,
flailing unconsciously,
beneath sheets of silk,
your feet,
meeting mine,
touch,
warmth.
Bless your feet,
that brought you to me.
