I need a tutor, I think you'd be perfect What am I failing in? A few subjects (I'm kind of a mess...) Geography and art, mostly But seeing you here, in front of me, I know you're perfect We'd be great at geography I want to map out your landscapes Out of the air The slopes of your shoulders, the dips from bone to bone The hills of your arms that can cradle me easily Wrapping me in the warmth that belongs to this world of yours The ridges in your spine are stones across a soft sea My fingers can jump from bump to bump- Traveling shore to shore- Without losing a breath You'd help me out a lot in art, All I want to do is photograph These new marvels I see The deep creases near your eyes that grow with laughter Your eyes themselves, Beads of pure light that flow into me I can't escape their gaze, nor would I want to Mapping out this world that lies within my grasp Would be the greatest adventure Feeling everything- From the sole to the soul, Engulfing myself in this new culture called Love It sounds familiar, but I've never experienced it Only heard of or seen You seem fluent in it, though, willing to try Want to show me around? I'm a faster learner, and I think You'd be a great teacher

Teach Me Something
I need a tutor, I think you'd be perfect What am I failing in? A few subjects (I'm kind of a mess...) Geography and art, mostly But seeing you here, in front of me, I know you're perfect We'd be great at geography I want to map out your landscapes Out of the air The slopes of your shoulders, the dips from bone to bone The hills of your arms that can cradle me easily Wrapping me in the warmth that belongs to this world of yours The ridges in your spine are stones across a soft sea My fingers can jump from bump to bump- Traveling shore to shore- Without losing a breath You'd help me out a lot in art, All I want to do is photograph These new marvels I see The deep creases near your eyes that grow with laughter Your eyes themselves, Beads of pure light that flow into me I can't escape their gaze, nor would I want to Mapping out this world that lies within my grasp Would be the greatest adventure Feeling everything- From the sole to the soul, Engulfing myself in this new culture called Love It sounds familiar, but I've never experienced it Only heard of or seen You seem fluent in it, though, willing to try Want to show me around?
