Poem Title:
Poem
“I want to hold your hand and drift with you I want to grow with you in our journey, let the dust infuse itself into our beings over time Until we become cumulus And something bigger Becoming rain and feeling each others thunder, coming together when sadness saturates one of us and holding it together Until it becomes too much and we agree to release it over the earth Feeding the oceans and rivers Watering gardens Find out that sadness has it uses And it can also be used to sustain something beautiful I want to comfort you in the soft rumblings of a language that’s just for us to understand I dream of nights, of rolling/tucking ourselves into each other with the moon as lamplight and over the scornful eyes of the world (how could we be so bold) let sparks build between each others body’s until our astonishing climax lights up the entire sky Because we have no shame The next day we can catch a ride on the jet stream and become the envy of planes as we travel anywhere it takes us Imagine the possibilities Seeing France and the lights of Paris India Brazil Africa Narrowly dodge hurricanes as we pass over the Atlantic Become shade to a desert Visit the Alps & Kilimanjaro And look at the world from around the peak We could become the fog over lakes and have the experience of seeing ourselves for the first time I want to watch you study yourself in the reflection Realize just how gorgeous you have always been and realize how much you will be regardless of how much you change Because I have seen all of your different shades and regardless of whether or not each one has a silver lining you are still beautiful And worth it I hope to grow old with you To spend our last days amusing ourselves laughing at the children pretending to find figures in our bodies Inspire a daydreamer with a child’s imagination to look up at us and write poems about love Because this is how much I love you And I want us to become parts of each other and stay that way So that even when the wind breaks us apart and scatters the pieces like ashes we are together Everywhere Indistinguishable from the other clouds but still eternal”
