Riverbed 5

My dear so and so is very far away A stone in your stomach is no way to start the day I pray to the waves and utter my wishes I'd rather have spirals and butterfly kisses Her wings for a morning, to swim in her breeze To walk across deserts with similar ease I'd surrender my fortune and burn the last chapter Swallow the future and deal with the past after Ache is inside me and burns for her edges It lingers, I long for her lips and her fingers Her voice on my skin, the hush of her lullaby My blood starts to rush and shooting stars multiply Bottomless kisses, I want to unfold her Sleep tangled up with her head on my shoulder She holds my breath, I swallow her fire The slower she goes, I'll follow her higher We navigate each other's lengths, we parachute and waterfall We hold ourselves open and restrain ourselves not at all I torture myself with runaway intentions, no sound No light, time starts to slow down The storm washes me over, she takes me apart She masters my body and breaks my heart I cover the clocks and try to remember To forget, to forgive, to forsake and to forfeit
