Your eyes remind me of the sunrise Your lips remind me of how much I long to touch you Your hips remind me of a garden Your fingers teach me about the earth Pianos sing melodies of water Hours pass before the earth changes color We are watered down versions of our ancestors Messengers speak in fleeting gestures We harbor gypsies and poets in our ports To keep them safe we erase their memories Cancerous conglomerates Long defy their promises
Blossoms of sound In the garden of drowning women Symbols surround our shadows We make art out of plastic water bottles Jugs of fresh drinking water Found along the shoreline I swore to keep my promises If we were alone iād hold you to my soul For without a shirt you look like a goddess I am compromising with my heart I wish to take you into my arms And hold you against the wind Windmills fill our sky-lines You speak of your hurt and your pain I write about my vision and my soul Confused and aroused by women in gowns I am surrounded by my shadow Lands of adulation Flocks of gesticulation Floods of fornication From where ever we came from The return to Now Still remains the greatest journey
