Dogs On The Shore
You. Ugly distorted contorted deformed and defamed
You. Beautiful shimmering light glowing peaceful open.
Let me kiss you
Let me weep into your hands
Let me give you this smile to
remember me by.
You, walking by me, can we dance?
Can I touch you, touch me? Gently
This is my body this is my thigh
Contours of soft mountains
and valleys, mystical caves
I would like to hear your laugh
Running into the echoes
Of these rivers running through me.
(Half a day and half a night
We have spent together now
Since the last time we met
Many landscapes ago)
I would like to smile up at the stars
Breathless with you on an ocean bed
And marvel, sshsh, - save the crack of the waves and our embrace, -
at the twinkling lights out of a shaded dark night sky.
Holder of mysteries
Whys melt into the moonsoaked ripples,
Questions' whispers drowned out by the sea
and your moist breath on my skin
These tears wet on my cheek are the splash of the tide
Rising and ebbing like the love overflowing from inside
Guardian of miracles, asker of riddles
Unfathomable, holder of mysteries.
