Swim with the Coy



I tumble for you. I tumble in the deepness of everything you are. You are most days my strength, my butterflies, my passion and drive. You are what could be. I see you and my heart is racing. I'm miles from you and I can already feel your thoughts. I love your dirty mind.

I love knowing when you see me you've put yourself in a different situati
on with me. It's me and you in a room alone even if we are in a crowd. I w
atch your eyes dilate and your skin turn pink as I get closer. Tease me more, make me understand what stirs you. You might not think so but I'm nervous too. I want to smell perfect. Feel perfect. Touch you perfectly. I want to be your perfect promise.

I deserve you. You deserve me. You see me as I want to be seen and take me as I am. You know I'll give till I've got nothing, for you. You know I'll never stop trying, for you.

Touch me once more. A brush of skin and I look away with a hot face. You drive me crazy. This is all familiar and different at the same time. We grew up. We know better. We know what we want. Is it safe to safe we want each
other? I believe so.

I can't stop laughing. Make me cry with joy. Please I need to be alive again. I need to remember I exist. Put your arms around me in the dark. A secret we share. But a faithful act. There is a line I want to cross. There is a limit I push. I will only go so f
ar till you tell me you want more.

A few days isn't enough. Constant chatter isn't enough! Won't you show me your world? I'll show you mine. I'll tease those dreams. I'll push away from where I am, caught by another and find you. If only for a moment to see your face.

Leaving you rips a part of me out. You are like wearing sunglasses all day and forgett
ing you took them off, once more reaching for something that isn't there, but the feeling is. Just a little longer. Just one more touch. Just another smile. Just another promise in secret.

Share more with me. Give it up, and open to what I offer. I swear I will be everything until you can't take everything anymore. Swim in the ocean with me. You are the only salt I will enjoy tasting. A test of my strength, I have a lot but I would break walls down for you, if you asked. Or I will sit upon them and wait for you to call me down.

Freshness. You will be my escape. You will be my warm water. You will be my coy, my Fish in which I will travel the seven seas with.

The smell of sea drifts as night lights sparkle...

To Live Forever

She wont live forever,
I understand that.
She wont always be there,
I knew she wouldn't.

She wont always have the right thing to say.
She wont always have that special way to comfort.
She wont be there just to listen.

She wont live forever.

She wont always assume she's right.
She wont always actually be right in the end.
She wont always smile when you figure it out.

She wont live forever.

She wont always smell the way she does.
She wont always feel soft against my cheek.
She wont always want to be comfortable.

She wont live forever.

She wont always have a strong grip.
She wont always be able to get your attention.
She wont always have the best laugh.

She wont live forever.

She wont always surprise you.
She wont always have amazing stories.
She wont always have a bed that feels like home.

She wont live forever.
She wont always do the things she does.
She wont always stop trying to take care of you.
She wont always have something silly to snack on.

She wont live forever.

I understand that.

Really.... she wont live forever.

I knew she wouldn't... but wont she?
