To Be Yours
To be yours
I sail ~~~
Seven raging seas
Yearning for
A sanctuary
Within your eyes
Where I reside
Peel off my pride
Be whole, or be
Nothing at all
For your love
I surrender ~~~
The depth of me
Build a boat
Out of my viscera
lay open the core
Of my vertebra
Let my marrow
Drink up your brine
Burn my soul
With its blaze
Wreck my ship
Upon your gaze
As I drown~~~
In the deep blue
I breathe ~~~
Inhale your waves
Into my lungs
Cripple my arms
Fight for dear life
Dive into
The tempest
of your tears
While I die~~~
I hold on to
Your lifeline
I wish For
Another try
A final touch
Of your hands
Of your face
Of your lips
I climb up
A steep hill
Down I slip
I retry~~~
I stand still
Shivering
Inside my bones
Until I see
The first dawn
Of your smile
And I am...
Once again...
Alive...
