im washed in passiflora by Nest
brown sugar still sticks to my skin
baked sparkling firmly
into the sweat
Or salt of the waves
psychoactive for me, The Ocean
that is your heart
Infused warm and Clear &Coral;
how are you all things,
that are better things?
Redolent pretty please
all of your love all over me
ya habibi, tu es tombé comme la pluie
and I am washed in it
when you fall so close to me
but can you taste the water
as it rolls off of me? close as we are
tasting all you sense,
can you taste the coconut in
your hair the way I can
when you're gone.
habibi, ya habibika months after you're
gone
wild curls and wild eyes
go grow a forest in my heart
I make a maintenance burn
in our brush
but how I love
Ah. j'amerai
i'll be passiflora to you
make this verdant my nest
able and thriving;
so what time should I
set the clocks to?
that depends on you
So what time should I
Set my clocks ??
That depends on you
hibiscus love why would I
ever set my alarms,
when I dream of you??
missing an island we've never been to, mute for languages i've not yet learned.
all the love you've put into my skin, my hair, my curls, my melanin😭
