Eliot Greene Dec 2013
If you were perhaps
To go and gather up your dreams
And climb your life
All the way across the world

Then perhaps I will follow
Be as Ruth, make your people my own
Make love to you under foreign skies
In the same shimmering moonlight

This world might be full of a thousand
Whatifs, shouldhaves, and whoknows

But I know that when you wrap
Your love around me
And dress me in the clothing
Of your tender

I have a reason to succeed
To thrive
To gather all the beauty in this world
And plant it on your skin
As a garden of kisses
