These words will fail me As I try in this longing To tell you how I would taste the salt of you So that my soul would be seasoned As I felt you move beneath my touch And I would know the offering of tender The surrender of eyes Slow wrapped tangle of us Sliding through a time would In knots hold us bound deeper than surface To settle rhythms pounding Then simply beating Dip the pen of your tongue Into the well of my mouth That I might find the words That will not fail me and write them with essence of us on the diary of your skin [This message has been edited by Cpat Hair (04-11-2002 12:26 PM).] |
