Ocean Fly

Maybe the ocean will never be enough To reveal the senses' struggle to reach Expectations floating over time. And maybe waves are not high enough To cover these words unsaid, this silence Of a love waiting. Years of earthen promises locked To find your beating, A rhyme my feet knew from the very start, The echo of your kiss Remaining in my soul. And I would travel lost lands and skies red To find you, To hold your breath between my lips. I would walk mountains of snow To reach your guilt To attend your fears with a care divine Stealing rain to satisfy your thirst, Stealing time to glorify your dreams. Your eyes would lead me to purity paths Of freedom and redemption, For my love to embrace the nights Seeking lost stars. For I would be the sea you cry And my hands the road you walk Twisting in this abyss of infinity. At this ocean's margin I remember Calling Fate to come, to show signs. A shapeless moon above my eyes Resembling to those dreams we lost, To those promises flied to other dimensions Waiting for your eyes to behold again. Anything BUT Rhyme

Amazing images of deeply felt and passionate love. I used to help with a magazine in which we chose special lines of poems and we had a section called "Divine Lines." Here is the one I would dub divine: To hold your breath between my lips. Congratulations on your win!
