i hope you
bask in what grew
from the iridescent
waves of pain
you once
knew

we are such little beings
in a world that is fleeting
our problems can seem big
but they’re soulfully-freeing
this life is an illusion
so let’s dance to confusion
i know that there’s pain
but it’s light that remains
it is all worth embracing
there is no time for wasting
the dreams in your heart
they won’t ever depart
all they’ve needed is you
to have faith in you, too
you are all that you need
so go on now—believe

but no matter the patter
from love you pursue
never stop humming
to the drumming
in you

my doubts
blew away (with) the breeze
i’m not big on (love)-betting
but with you (i) could be..
our haze of past days
(kept) pushing me away
but with (the) heat
of this (summer)
i felt you pave (new) ways
(through) the cracks in my heart
as you claimed my (lost) parts
you rendered us (time)less
until (our) end could restart
no matter how (long)
(darkness) kept us apart
when i’m (clothes) in your arms
all that (pain) becomes art
(my) tears become tidal waves
that have pushed me to see
that all along our (love)
(made) my losses
care(free)

in the depth of
my sea of losses
lies a flicker of fate
and it dances to flames
that still echo your name

a moment is a movement
in the endless waves at sea
but the instant that we met
the world was as still as can be

i can feel the wooden floor
beneath my sandy, bare feet
and goosebumps lined my body
as your eyes locked in a gaze with me

all i see are blues and greens
combined with all my hopes and dreams
when your tongue spoke foreign tones
i felt my heart synch to your beat

i ******* breath inside your teeth
and feel your rhythm in my feet
forever was occurring
in one momentary
glimpse of We

our bodies became illusions
i saw no ending inside of me
no beginning to your vessel
for we had blended into
