The momentum of time is about the same as my heart rate
The more it is acknowledged the slower it lingers
But this is not so with you

The times you were near
Hair follicles against my collar bones
Crooked thumbs caressing my spine
Legs intertwined

The times you were near
Illuminating the dark spaces in my mind
Your essence makes my mind sing
My happiness

The times you were near
Breath rising my skin
You are the scent of tranquility & leisure
Dandelions

Won't you crawl under a clock with me?
We can rest our heads between 6 and nine
Ignite our spines,
Expand our minds,

We have all the time in the world
But as my love claims
"Time is irrelevant"

Swim to me aquatic lover
Tell me what it's like deep down
Your eloquence unbeknownst to you
I promise you will always be beautiful to me

I'd like to make a bungalow in your head
Maybe just for a while
Pack your troubles along with me
Take the burden off your dorsal
Keep you afloat

Whenever you feel like just a small fish in your vast blue perspective
Know that you have filled the space between my lungs
With an elixir all your own
Your salt water will never fully evaporate from my soul
Without you I will have to rely on air
Experiencing you was the best kind of drowning
