Sea of love

Friday, August 11, 2017

We sway,

Sailing an invisible sea

Rocking each other

To keep from falling overboard,

Yet aching to drown,

To breathe this which is not water

Or air,

Sea brine I fill you up with

So we might both survive,

Potent as a witch’s brew,

An intoxicating broth

We shake up, and feel rise

Rushing into us

As we rock on this sea

That is not a sea

Living like sailors

Stranded in each other’s arms

Hip to hip

Lip to live

Drinking in each other

As we drift on this

Sea of love
