naming the ocean

|


falling like unpredictable destination
I have fallen too far for you
you move in and out of my vision
touching my thoughts like
I should have touched you

I am weak simply from wanting you
and my thoughts fall heavy
towards a fear of breaking hearts
sound of pain like smashing glass like
the beginning of nothing at all

but you hair burning       long and killing me
slicing through me         too deep
with your eyes
you breathe      too close to me
too far away
and still
I can almost touch you
and I hear them calling your name again
like an ocean breaking upon the shores
of helpless visions
            I can feel you

heart separates from mind         pulse runs wild
sending me dancing in your hidden light
so I close my eyes
frustrated with my silence and
the need for words

your presence is too strong
your movements pull me
            I am afraid
afraid of you   
  of what you do do to me

hunger pulse blood beat
thirsting for a touch
dance dance deep inside me
inside you

I hear them calling your name again
like I    
 never   
      could
