When I lift my head and meet your eyes
Everything in the world is put to shame;
Deepest of seas, widest of sapphire skies
Are all an insult for where is their flame?
You make the sun blush even at darkest of night,
The moon glow more with each upward stare;
Ironic how you'd pick up a sword in a fight
For the most deadly weapon you already wear.
I carefully look at you from across the fire
You answer me, holding my weakening glance
A smile - you know exactly what you are doing;
You expose me, reveal me, won't give me a chance.
I take a deep breath and crash like the waves
Feel myself powerlessly washing ashore;
I know I am helpless as I again drift back,
And tenderly drown in your blueness once more.
