Intimacy in a Wishing Glass
Breath that hums soft and still
plays the silent drum
Your eyes that pierce the sky are filled
with ever lasting love
Down to your feet that soak with water
on a rainy day
But even the wettest fellow has love
that can’t drip away
I tap your name to mocking birds
and breath the breathe of life
And everyday were stepping in different directions
that takes flight
I don’t know what your days been like
but I think of you today
And it hurts to be apart from you
on this particular day
But you and I are strong and know
that spring creeps day by day
And the flowers bloom and speak to you
and tell you “you shall stay”
There are a thousand constellations
that know your name and smile
Because I’ll whisper them into their ears
so they can talk for miles
