canonball

your breath is the,

whisper,

of a higher being,

teaching me of

happiness unknown,

 

the pounding of my chest,

is the breakbeat,

of joy, in tune with,

ecstasy and unlimited desire,

 

lying awake, no

need for sleep, energy

renewed, by running

fingers through

your hair...

 

(lost in the black,

I've no need for them back...)

 

thirst for water, is satiated

by lips, so soft, your sweat,

sticks, to my soul,

your tears, when happy,

are my oasis, when sad,

reveal, an unknown drive...

 

I could dive into your

smile, springboard

off your perfection,

splash, in a beauty,

that I certainly don't deserve,

 

I could bask in your

intelligence, eloquence

and charm, never worried,

of the consequences

of their strength...

 

I would confine myself,

to rigid structures/rhyme schemes,

if it meant that I could keep you,

in my dreams...

I could love you for,

eternity,

reciprocated, I will,

you're all i want to see, breathe,

drink and feel...
