Jul 2012
It's been 21 days since I last saw you and I'm starting to shake at the seems.
My thread's coming lose, my brain's turned two blues, and body's gone deaf with silent screams.
Unrav'ling thoughts, twisted dreams and scapes painted gold with high hopes you finally face me.
Tides wave good bye, your beach is bone dry, and your ship is still stuck out at Sea.
The water's rough and all turned white with tears of lost sailors' brides.
But I built this boat with memories of you and I alone in the tall red grass March ides.
You told me "you, you're important to me. Don't ever hinder to ask. I'll gladly share my thoughts"
But you didn't know that deep down below I had a dark sandy drowning black past.
I row and sweat and mesh to your waters till I light my fire with burning shoulders dire want to feel your fingers laid in mine once again.
You say it reciprocates and I hate to question, but there's no way you share this impossible connection.
I traveled out here, I'll die in these waves in hopes that you seek my love too.
My face grew long and pruned and drained out there while I waded and waited for you.
Yeah I waited and waded and rowed and I wrote all to the beat of your heart. I remember it well even after all of these years.
I know just how it goes thump thump, thump thump, thump thump, thump thump.
I hear it again as your waves crash down. I feel your skin as I'm washed to the ground.
I can taste your lips in the salt of my casket where I'm sent to wait. I can feel your lips in this salty blue casket.
I sit in my sleep as your gentle hands keep me safe in your fluid sweet basket
Of Hate that you kept me from my whole life by the thought that you existed- my one true delight.
You cup my body and hold me as I sleep in a trance. No alarms.
Well I've been at it my whole life, I've been looking for YOU and I've earned my rest in your arms.
I see you now, now that it's over, and you look so shockingly right.
You've been there all along you're never too far gone, In death you've given me sight.
As I sink down to my tomb I think only of you and how much I regret the fight,
That I had in my head throughout my whole life your presence is my Juliet's knife.
I reach the bottom of your Ocean and stare into space.
Out of breath out of time I suddenly don't mind.
You're mine and I know it. You've made it clear to me in death.
For 21 years I've missed my Wonderful Elizabeth.
