The Ocean and the Sky

The Boy with seaside eyes and the girl with the skyline gaze, again.

I saw the ocean again

On my way back into

                This city

He showed me tenderness

 

His eyes are as vast as mine

                They mimic me

For an infinite variety

                Of complexity

 

I fell in love with the ocean once before

 

                I have fallen in love with the ocean again

This time it was somewhere between

                                New Year’s Eve

And a sunny Sunday morning in

                                March

 

His hands wandered

                A destination clear

In mind

Searching the places in-between my thighs

Panting quiet I love you’s

                Into my ears

 

So he’s come back to me

                As tides often do

But like the old saying

                Does this mean it’s meant to be?

 

You see he’s got eyes just like the

                                Sea

                And I the sky

But this heart of mine has been broken

                                Multiple times

 

I’m afraid he will fire some off form of squid’s ink

                                Into my skies

Blotting out these weak city

           Stars

 

They barely gleam here

                Against this brightly lit skyline

In my gaze

But regardless of warnings

 

I throw my light into his depths

                Where it turns into diamonds

We have mingled once again

And all I can do

                At this point

Is beg

 

Don’t Break my Heart

                                Again
