I am the moon

lofty in darkness, mysterious.

Tell me all your dreams,

dance with me.

You are the sun

bright and warm, cheery.

Let me smile with closed eyes,

bask in you.

A world away

people and places, things.

I see you often,

in the dawn of light.

I thought I loved you

but I am tied to earth

and earth

is tied to you.

Is it possible
that I dream of you
in all of the ways
I dream of love?

Gushing as you sleep
waking to steal a peek
between sheets,
our secrecy.

I roll over to see you
after a long sleep
grey eyes if you knew
what I see
I blink closer and open
you feel a freak
her body soaking into
your skin sea
gold flecked horizon
warm shoulders to a crisp
rolling wave turns on
crashing into me

I live with the feeling
emanating from
the pit of my gut
coats every hair
every surface
of my being.
Right out west
the city buzzes
fluttering up
your ear slopes
distracting your interest.
The adoration in me
is only matched
by full gushes of
wondering how you resist
engulfing me.
