Bubbles

I gazed up and I saw myself
In the fluorescing stars
Glaring light, lustrous eyes beam
Despite the blinding black that does surround
What the obstructing light cannot cloud.

And I felt bubbles rise up my chest
Engulfed my liver and stomach with zest
And I floated while the froth cascaded
Trickling down from the sky
And the smiling, gleaming eyes,
With a last goodbye wrapped me in within myself.

In the dancing dark did we really feel
The bubbles bursting into waterfalls
And melting our bodies, nearly heal?
I only wish for you
If you felt the bubbles too.
