We run with the truth,
our very own storied excuse
where we tell the other
just how much we’re loved
always getting what we wanted to give.
Clearly,
our hearts are forthright and honest.
It’s the start of a fire
with the girl
who understands how to speak
the actual truths in words.
With both our charms
we electrify the dull and greyed out sky
and at the same time
we are fascinated
by the burning
we’re keeping safe inside.
It’s not exactly clear
what’s really going to happen
when we reach and touch.
When we start to kiss
there are oh so few
to think we’d ever be allowed
to drink the apochethries precious poison?
Who can come
and turn to me, all unexpected
when I’m upside down inside?
Come calm the vertigo,
that feeling,
when you step from the edge
and your stomach drops.
Both of us desperate to grasp
onto the other’s hand
holding tightly as we slide
down into our cushions.
Loudly,
we laugh
burying the background noise
nothing ever truly mattered
our laughter was the real sound
our hearts have been craving.
I love the reckless girl,
the one who has slammed into me
ever so gently
I wrap my charms around her
getting lost
in some special garden,
a garden I’ve been planning
for the last couple of hundred of years.
Solitarily building
trying to impress the shine in her eyes.
All at once
the world seems so free
void from all distraction
no more nagging complaints
from my left shoulder
that has decided to stop and rest.
To take the day off
allowing me this new start
some rest with her.
Laughing quietly,
side by side
we’re slowly building
the inside memory triggers
where we live by pure instinct.
A simple glance
and she turns,
a pause
and I ask if she’s alright?
Late night love-making
without ever really touching
our tantric positions
positioning the other
she loves to dance
I love to guide her hands
reaching in
taking that grasp
and inserting it into mine.
We fall, twisting in the blankets.
These words
are the storied truths
I’m chronicling
for just her eyes
in a public way.
I love her
and I’m blessed
to have words as my currency
so I can spend
the hours in days
showing the world
just how a ransom
is paid.
