through the window i see the endless blue
beneath the surface live so many things
beautiful spell names i could tell you them if you'd like
i could whisper your name as you wrapped yourself
around me, as you engulfed me
and everything that was alive inside of you floated
through my ears
--
submerged in the wonder
i know that if i go too deep
i lose my color amidst your depth
it isn't something i'd learn
through experience, i'd remember to
hold my breath, to surface
before long
---
in the morning when i wake up you are a dark dark blue
your face your body your hands your heart your soul
i'll hold my breath and take you all in knowing
that by evening you will be orange
and swallow the sun, whole.
