WAIT FOR ME
I felt your ribs
when we
were slow dancing
drifting through the city
with its dreams painted on the street walls
and I have
mine carved in the halls of my heart
where we
hide our most precious things
I felt you shiver
if your
love is like a sea
I wish your thorax is full of water
draw me – love notes on my skin
till the
fire burns up the bones
and you'll
look for me through fountain eyes
love – till the verge of madness
I lure you
with my words in this game of blindness
we like
to dress in mystery - defining our
morals
you catch me in a moment and blind my eyes with daisies
I know your
voice, it whispers
between
your heartbeats
lose your
lips on me
and wait for me
