Flowers.
Sunrise upon a face,
Sunset upon a heart.
The eyes in silence,
The arms in chaos.
The obsessions,
The anxiety
Relentless in my mind.
Breathing, breathing
Keeping time.
Flowers.
Sunrise upon a face,
Sunset upon a heart.
The eyes in silence,
The arms in chaos.
The obsessions,
The anxiety
Relentless in my mind.
Breathing, breathing
Keeping time.
I want to reach you.
To fall into you
And collapse in fevered cries.
Revel in
The sight of you.
But I will never beg
Your hands
Touch me.
I will never beg your lips meet mine
Or you arms surround me.
Dreams will have to do.
I will not.
I will not.
I will dream.
I have been the waves that carried you home
When you were lost at sea.
I was the the rain that fell upon your
Weary head
And
Quenched your thirst.
I have been the desert that left you dry and helplessly
Crawling;
The oasis in the sand.
I was the sky that held you up so long ago
And the stars you have wished upon.
But
In this life;
I am the arms that hold you.
Yes,
My heart has always held you.
I fought love
A long,
Long time.
I put up my fists and stood
In
Defiance.
Pushing
And shoving
The slightest,
The kindest
Approach
Away.
Because that is what the ones wearing the disguise of love
Taught me to do.
Until
Into your soul
I wandered
And into your arms I fell.
I’m going to close my eyes
And there I will see you.
There I will be with you.
I’m going to open my arms
And there I will hold you.
There I will touch you.
I’m going to open my heart
And there I will greet you.
There I will love you.
I’m going to lay down my soul
And there I will feel you.
There I will breathe you.
