You Are My Sea. I Am The Waterfall
~ a love poem ~
Love and desire have no boundaries
love is pure soul.
You cannot divert the passion of a waterfall.
It must reach open seas to become eternal.
You are my sea. I am the waterfall
I must end in you or die trying.
You entered my blood like quicksilver
and lodged in my heart.
Now my heart is you.
If I could, I would keep you safe.
For myself.
Pull my heart out and I die…
Do you understand?
In the night, I weep.
Like a prophet
you wander in the desert my love
and for a bit I forget — war and death await.
I rage at the sky. I rage at humankind
I rage at myself for being helpless.
For you, I cry.
The impossible happened.
From mercury in my heart a flower grew.
How can I protect you?
I send my dreams to you,
