There was a space in my heart
where your voice assonated its art
the whisp on your lips whistled with the leaves
rumbling in the wind like my skin in the breeze
carried by the hurr blowing in my hair
and sometimes it's like you're not even there.
Afloat by the clouds coming from your voice
echoing the etched words, I was poised
by a reckoning, beckoning me to stay
inside the storm where my hands sway
entangled and wrangled in the velvet sky
ironed by the gleam coming from your eyes.
Crashing into waves with the sand in your hands
as the strands of my hair on my neck stands
branded by the seven seas you traced in
the places I never found in my skin
while the mountains shook from the earthquake
as the wake of shooting stars began to flake.
In the morning starlight
with the distance of our skies close and tight
wrapped in the bareness of your arms
where you cloaked coke on my charms
there was a space in my heart
alliterating me into literate art.
