when i look in your eyes
the stars swirl with the ground rise
caught in a haze of glitter
lost in the midnight skies
a calm in your voice
falls in the gentle rain
the scattered dripping
soaked up in warm sand
your endearing hands open
catch the engulfing sunlight
and in affection they bleed
into my willing surface
its in every word you speak
a distant wave crashing
a light cleansing foam
to wash away memories
your footsteps through the door
a warm knife through patience
the horns stop beeping
i was waiting
