Hours taken by sea butter sunshine gone to a chalky lavender smudge
our feet made prints in piles of freckles skin tickled by heat
are you in my head pirouetting between dreams
or real as diamonds (so youβd know about kisses)
you filled hollowness with petals cups of lust
played my fragile xylophone like an expert
swapped it for a piano made it sing
youβre the pearl on my palm in a thunderstorm
my sweet speck of dark magic at sunrise
I pull away for you to tug me right back in again
Written: June 2014. Explanation: A poem written in my own time, and part of my beach/sea series. PLEASE NOTE this is technically a collaboration piece, with part two written by my friend Rena - it can be found here: http://hellopoetry.com/poem/740866/inout-collaboration-with-reece-aj-chambers/ It would be appreciated if you read both parts, as they are linked somewhat. Feedback is very welcome and respected.
