short breaths, short breaths!
under a crescent moon
i'll descend with you to the deepest of depths
--my grand misfortune
i have considered the ocean
and sunk onto the earth
my bare feet swimming on the grass' motions
for despite drought, a shower of chance is enough to drown me with
mirth
i have considered the lilies
and have caressed them, oh so lightly
laid my hands on the soil with so much ease
fingers, frolicking, dancing idly
i have considered your existence
and once have i ever been filled with persistence
for love is sufficient unto love
