Hourglass skies

 


I see through

hourglass skies,

a tide of time

spent by your side

and that shore is a place

I will visit every day.

Still waters

refresh my burning feet.

Waves lap gently, mimicking

the beat of the heart

I hold within me.

 

I see through clockface memories.

Futures present themselves to me

in a series of stitched together

fragments of a dream.

I take you hand.

Fingers between mine.

I hold you tight as we pull closer

and let our lips taste the night.

And I’m filled with light,

I can feel the heart take flight

and soar up to the stars above.

Could this be a fantasy?

Just a misremembered dream,

then why does my heart

still sing of star dust love,

and why do I see so much

when my eyes are closed shut?

 

I see over sandcastle sunrise,

a place I could stand

from day until night.

Feeling the sand

sitting tight between toes.

And as the night

gently takes hold

watching the moon

as she glows

and seeing you dance

in the images she throws.

 

I see in those hourglass sighs,

the swimming motion

of a fierce ocean

beckoning me in.

And I wish to swim with you

in your clear crystal seas.

Just take this hand,

Fingers between mine,

pull me close

and feel my lips

as we stretch the limits

of reality until it snaps,

and we can just bask

in the everlasting eclipse

of the sun and the moon

dancing in their ballroom of stars.
