Come down from the clouds
Show me all it is you’ve got
Tell me what you are
I needed to stay
and watch you
tremble in your sleep.With nary a sound,
you stunned.Observing my eye.
Collecting my thoughts.
Grouping.
And processing, processing.
Slow first, then faster.
Performing.Although slumbering,
you sensed my awe
and lack of a shutter for proof.
Still orchestrating,
you made me miss my flight.
Those misshapen borders maybe
But there is no unfinished business at the garden gate
Despite what the flowers wish
When they bow their heads at night
They know I gave my best
If we’re facing East
Our eyes are at easeThe air’s unrestrained
The soul knows its nameUnshakeable faith
We will run this raceBreath is at rest
Refuse to get dressed
You’d be proud
You finally sat still
And let my overheated body crash onto
What I think was your chest
While some big-eyed, long-legged, bubble-blowing bug
Dug in
And giggled at the whole thing
Whose eyes were more sleepy – yours or mine?
A movie we couldn’t have missed
It was epic
And here I am overheated again
Or it could have been your shoulder before
Epic, I said
I hope too
I doI hope He
Whispers with stardust
My name
Into your heartAnd it swirls and won’t settle
And it stirs your feet
Until you are foundIn the calm wind
Of your name
That He whispered
Into my heart
