I see
We love in simile
A closer look reveals to me

But I am not the one
High waters I will shun
Relationships the current strips been done

I hear
The heart in you beats clear
A distant fear, I’m ever near

But no, the surfaces I cling and so
Too complicated, let me go
There is no love inside to grow

I call
In favor of a free for all
So hard to heal these shoals we stall
A stream erodes the highest wall

I see
Pushed off the shores that hostage me
A man’s allure in first degree
Be fair yourself, don’t care for me

I knew
In every blessed part of you
Much more than ever candled to
This walk on water, pulling through

I hear
So strange that you would wait right here
Too warm for me to hold you near
So strange that I became this dear

I see
A closer look reveals to me
We love in simile

Captured trying not to be captured .... or would that be captivated?  So enjoyed this write. To love in simile is still love is it not?
