Is It The Sea You See In Me

As for me, 
I would completely be content with being handed a grenade 
you tell me it's your heart but,

I just keep thinking how close I am to being blown to bits 
if something were to go wrong 

I am beginning to realize the color of blood that you bleed when you're with me

I had a dream that I tie dyed my body the colors of your imagination 
which melted into the ocean that you swam through 

I do not know what it is about you that closes and opens, 
only something in me comprehends the voice of your eyes is deeper than all the roses in the world 

everything that keeps me together is gradually falling apart,
I will lean against the dark and the bright sides of the moonlight trusting 
that it will illuminate why I cannot function sometimes-
but I always awake the next morning in a fog  out of my dreams 
which always 
taste 
like you
