When You Show Up

You show up it unfreezes the sun seagulls unwrap wings on ocean bank. Fragrance thickens on grassland. I wait for you on silver sand. You show up moonlight permeates my eyes the way innocence softens the face of a child. My desire and my lust bite into my bones. I dare to be a wayfarer again out of my cocoon. You show up cloud and rain as one fall over the terrain. it is all open horizon there it rains dense, my sole existence gets soaked. My future, my worries; I care not to behold. The world is growing old it's banal, it's dreamless everywhere. Who cares? I want to wink at death, sorrows and pain and feel young with you yet again.
