you had a taste for adventure. i didn't know you at all.
shadowed pictures and make believe.
i made myself believe i owned you.
for a moment.
for a minute.
i found that in this
there was shelter from the storm.
there was a picture perfect view.
of you.
balancing, head twisted to the side.
grinning out the corner of your mouth.
beckoning.
i heard you sing
last night.
(or the night before)
songs from before we were born.
(get on the plane)
a crooked axis leaning in
towards the ocean
we both been
tired.
alive.
restless.
your skin. against mine. cool to the touch. i imagine.
i imagine.
i imagine endless sand and sky blue froth curling around your toes.
rainbows
in your hair. holding shoulders. softly.
at first.
but only at first.
strumming fingers over golden skin. using your limbs for strings.
tuning you to c minor.
and playing you lovely.
making you sing. in spanish. at sundown.
