Listen!
I thought the way I live for YOU
More possessively
More obsessively
With a longing for divinity
and belonging of sincerity
I thought the way I dream
with the muse of your beam
How I crave your breath
How I yearn for your hearth
I thought the way I grasped my words in YOU
Glitters with my glints
Fades with my flints
Listen! I thought of YOU
As a magnificent LIGHT
mesmerizingly bright
As an orchid of lavender
ravishingly wonder
I airily worship your eyes and ears
softly with the zealously hears
I thought I endlessly near
Near your heart with a divine starch
that yearly meat and march
I speak to the airy blinks around
the ink of nights
That often eagerly invites
my divinity for you in lights
As when ysou click the flipping flights
I thought of you
As you ever for me and mine
Like a mate of sensuous sign
Highlights the unheated lines.
