Swimming For Love

Stroke one,
breath you'll do fine.
sencond stroke,
can you see the finish line?
He's waiting for you there.
Stroke three,
somethings wrong.
Fourth stroke,
i cant breath
No more strokes.
Can you see the light?
you can see the finish line and him
Swim there instead
Swim, faster!
The light it's fading away with him
Thump on your chest, eyes flutter open
You see him,
he's leaning over you,
hair wet from the water,
you'r own eyes wet with water
but its not plain water,
tears of joy.
He leans down.
"You won."
His sweet lips touch yours
There is your prize

it's like the form"I don't know" i was fine untill i got to the kiss. it started out to be a wonderful poem about Jesus then at the end it was twisted around. not that there's anything wrong with gay dreams, but.....JHL
