We only danced like floating shadows
in mesmerizing daydreams
wistfully yearning
to drift as light as shapeless air
Warm brush of skin seemed so tangible
across the distant horizon
touching souls
only in the throes of musing dreams
Sailing blindly down unmapped winding river shorelines
tiptoes touch
at shallow waters’ edge
"Close your eyes" ... swim afar
where feral currents beckon
waft away adrift
in a moonstruck daydream trance
Only in sumptuously
lucid night dreams
we swim stark-naked
in a sea of sublimity
Plunging into an alluring metaphysical abysm
into the secret titanic depths
azure oceans bathe
Plummeting from the edge a Utopian threshold
swirling beneath restless
swollen waves crest
Unraveling passion’s prevailing tidal maelstrom
the wanton estuary
where lovers yearn to swim
Yet … I’ll drift away alone in this restless moonlit solitude
fly by night through star dust
showered cosmos scenes
crash into naked stars
in their luminescent splendor
Imbibe a spellbinding elixir yellow moon on the rise
Only in dreams before morning dewdrops gather
impearled flesh glistens
on the cotton beach of dawn
Awakening sighs replaced by warm enraptured whispers
the sensual asylum
passion tenderly betides
Splendidly improbable entrancing reverie
inspiring indefinable
enchanting realms
Awakening to another lonesome daybreak
the outgoing tide,
drowning in the trove
beautiful dreams befall
Someone you used to know
2017
