The Day You Wrote Eternity

I wrote it all

Drew the way your starlit eyes
Plotted constellations in my bones
Sunk my fangs into your neck
Quenched my thirst for truth
That which lies within your skull

I phased through matter
To see transitions
Of crimson clouds
Fill vein incisions
That spill into a slitted sky
When dusk arrives
The night becomes nebulous
At horizon lines
In sight from Earth
The birthright to your cosmic vision

I played the music manifested
In your naked inhibition
Caressed the strings that softly wept
And sung the moon into submission

I danced to beats that only knew
Of your heart
In rain and blood
Through body--moved
The hidden language of your soul

If only I had ever known
Defined the shapes
Through which you flow
The melody of movement
Absorbed in tones--outlining notes
In harmonic pulses of my own

I sculpted diamonds out of clay
Reinvented colored glass
Soaked in lemon through my veins
Stung into your wounded past
Needle, thread of violet stitches
Velvet language in your skin
Aloe vera, soothing fingers
Tracing curves along your chin
And down your neck
While pressing in
Between your clavicle connection
Your map of skeleton--perfected

I wrote it all
While you wrote all of me
In a single day
Eternity

Thank you for you thoughtful review, as always. I meant both distain and disdain, but there's only room for one, ha. Thanks for noticing my attempts of philosophical wisdom, I often feel alone in how I see connections and trying to explain what, to me, are revelatory ideas and perceptions

time is such a gas! ;)

Remarkable. One wonders throughout in every meaning of the word. I think Music of the Spheres when reading this. A poem for the heavens.
