We swim

against the tide together
I feel your pulse as we thrive..
Your kiss a burst of ever beloved
In lust, in space, in love.

My eyes cave in, my heart, and mind.
Love is blind, love is kind an observance
of dreams we cannot see only linger
Like this beautiful feeling we’ve been
smearing on and beyond inside of us

Against a currant of blood you ride and
hide in me we dance together like wolves
escaping fear the gray stones of mountains
waterfall red bloody red will spill for us like
seeds as I feel you grow like weeds thru out
my entity as a passion of this connection in
lust turn to trust

I haven’t seen your eyes for years but I believe
them like it was yesterday we have little time to
catch the moments that swept away by a swollen
river I watch you young and old turning glows
reverence in your sad eyes no fear but the truth of
lies time dies let’s laugh once more in starlight who
knows what is next dead wings of an angel touch of
a known stranger the waiting pushing to danger

Inside this accelerated moment shifts no boundaries
Your smile celebrates the joys and lows the body of
christ kissed on my eye lids then shifted like deformed
and mutated to man kinds whispering wishes the wishes
of man and woman the kind of sin that we give in smell
of dying flowers and the color bright red dark red and then
black like hearts waiting to dry drip down last drop

The things I have in my heart are beautiful and insane you
should feel them change in pain in pleasure feel the wave
We’ve collected the time like silhouettes creased in corners
Of mind and soul escaping like loose cannons to break rules
I want to break rules with you in this moment the only one that’s
true
