I listened to you
call my name
Your beauty astounds me
I am speechless
I close my eyes
Your waves crashed
in my ears
Oh to taste you
would be so sweet
A drink of the divine
My tongue is parched
with such desires
There are nights
when I know
you want to consume me
You're so alluring
Sometimes I want
to be one with you
To drink you
into my lungs
let you devour me
But something keeps me
on your shores
I have touched you
as you have me
Each of us
a part of eachother
Our time may be drawing near
but it has yet to come
Farewell my sweet
I leave you for now
But I shall return




Thanks for reading. Hope you enjoyed it.

    This poem eloquently made me seriously thirsty.

    Also, it reminded me of an ex-girlfriend from a long time ago and made me wonder what she's doing now....

    Consummation or to be consumed... a divine question.
    I'm stepping in front of the gushing hydrant in a hurricane. I'd like to see the traction I keep.

    reminds me of the one that inspired me to write in the last year.
    wish we were meant to be
    Some people have to have the sultry evenings Cocktails in the blue, red and grey But I like every minute of the day.

    Sigh, sigh, sire where have you gone instead?
    It's like playing music, the strings of time
    the flow of something more
    standing on the shore.

    I love your poem.

    i hung out with a smoker last night
    it had been a long time
    i woke up hardly breathing

    i wonder about all the youth
    who sit there with they stupid youth
    who inhale tax poison for bombs

    everywhere you look it's death
